Popis: | This present study reports results of performance evaluation of a solar-driven dual parallel-connected ejector (DPE) cooling system using the concept of solar fraction (SF). The experiments were conducted in July and August, 2015 from 09:00 to 16:00 hours at School of Renewable Energy Technology (SERT), Naresuan University, Thailand, with a solar collector area of 2.4 m2, auxiliary heater of 3 kW, operating at boiler pressure of 2 bar and using water as working fluid. Temperature was measured for inlet and outlet of solar collector. The results showed that the solar collector supplied about 24% of energy required to operate the system. The solar collector performance was 11% and the monthly average SF was 23.9% for July and 23.5% for August. |
