이중투과체 및 VIP복합 단열재 적용 평판 집열기의 성능 향상에 대한 연구

The purpose of this research is to improve the thermal effiency of solar collector and to quantitatively analyze its performance. Solar thermal systems have been limited to water heating systems mainly using low-temperature range. However, through diverse developments, the application has been extended to medium- and high-temperature fields such as solar heating, solar air conditioning, and solar thermal industrial process. Among the diverse research, this research is specially focusing on enhancement of the thermal performance by minimizing the heat loss coefficient of flat plate solar collectors. In order to do it, a front-side glazing material and a back-side insulation material with high insulated structure is proposed and based on computational analysis, the performance of energy collecting volume of the proposed solar collector is analyzed. The research shows that the proposed structure has the excellent performance at medium- and high-temperature range. therefore, it is expected that the proposed structure can easily replace existing technologies.
