The glass mirror and Aluminium absorber have been identified as best materials. These selected materials are replaced in existing experimental setup. An experimental design is prepared based on the considered parabolic collector parameters: Absorptivity, Reflectivity and Period of Sun Incidence. During experiments, outlet temperature of water and discharge is recorded for each experimental run. These data are analyzed using fuzzy Logic integrated with the Taguchi method and optimal parameter combination has been found.展开更多
文摘This paper focused on selection of best materials for absorber tube and reflective surfaces of Solar Parabolic Collector (SPC) using fuzzy logic, after analysing the material data.
