The implemented model computes the energy balance in the hot water storage tank in each time step along a simulation interval. Its input data are values from a typical meteorological year of a chosen location and the hot water load. The system components are the hot water storage tank and the solar collector. Firstly, the validation of the model is presented and then four solar water heating systems are simulated in four different cities along one year. The storage tank water hourly temperatures were obtained for a typical meteorological year and those values were compared with the values obtained by the widespread TRNSYS simulation software. The results obtained from this comparison were satisfactory.展开更多
