The present work describes a study performed to evaluate the logic implemented control forced circulation process inside of two 5 m3 storage tanks used on solar water heating system installed in Autonomous University Nuevo León (UANL) Mexico. A simulation model TRNSYS was successfully developed and validated with measured field data for this purpose. long-term performance plant optimizations are also discussed.
A method to evaluate the performance of annual solar concentrators is presented. The ray-tracing technique regularly used assess concentrator's performance; however, most works in this area simplify simulation process by considering representative scenarios throughout year, such as tracking studies summer and winter solstices or monthly averages system performance. presented develops simulations using dynamic data exchange protocol allow communication between TracePro® MATLAB with defined...
