The present work experimentally evaluated the performance of a solar collector comprised evacuated tube heat pipe (ETHP) coupled with a compound parabolic concentrator at different tilt angles. Therefore, experiments have been conducted in the climate conditions of Tamil Nadu (77.07° E,11.04° N), India, from April 15, 2019, to May 20, 2019. The objective of the work is to explore the effect of a tilting angle on the performance of an evacuated tube solar collector with a thermosyphon attached to the compound parabolic concentrator. The CPC is designed with an aperture width of 343 mm, concentration ratio of 2.32, and aperture angle of 25.4°, improving the solar collector efficiency with the help of MATLAB Programming, which gets Coordinate points based on these coordinate points. CPC Profile is fabricated. The Thermosyphon heat pipe is constructed with a Copper tube having a 19 mm diameter with 40% Acetone charged. The experiments were conducted by varying the tilting angles of the solar collector at 15°, 30°, 45°, and 60° horizontal. The heat resistance and instantaneous efficiency of the solar collector are studied in this study. The result reveals a minimum thermal resistance of 0.02 kW−1, and a maximum efficiency of 78% was recorded at a 45° tilting angle. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
