Popis: The courant research presents the heat transfer and thermal efficiency in an experimental investigation of solar air collector system for several configurations in Biskra Region (Algeria). Experiments were performed for forced convection airflow in the air duct of SAH to define the performance. A conventional solar air heater considered for the comparison purpose was working under similar conditions for all the configurations. The effect of baffles configurations and arrangement on the convective heat transfer coefficient and thermal efficiency were compared. The results showed that the thermal performance is proportional to the solar intensity at the Type I and a specific mass flow rate.
