Experimental designs for a solar domestic hot water storage system were built in efforts to maximize thermal stratification within the tank. A stratified thermal store has been shown by prior literature to maximize temperature of the hot water drawn from the tank and simultaneously minimize collector inlet temperature required for …
Sharif et al. assert that the cost-effective and efficient way for preheated domestic water used in buildings is solar (heated with solar energy) domestic hot water. This study examines the melting process of PCM in an evacuated solar collector containing an absorbent RT82, PCM storage system.
The system was modeled numerically using 1-D discretization of the storage tank in the axial direction and lumped capacitance model for the heat transfer inside the PCM modules. A novel comparison was presented between two candidate thermal storage designs for solar domestic hot water application: direct and indirect heat exchange.
