Abstract

This paper considers the main parameters of the solar collector with thermosyphon circulation for the solar heat supply system. There was developed a flat solar collector construction with thermosyphon circulation wherein the heat transfer coefficient is increased by removing the additional partitions between a panel and heat insulation. The solar collector’s efficiency reached by the availability of a tank and thermal pump in the construction where a condenser and evaporator executed the form of a heat exchanger of «spiral in spiral» type and heat exchanger pipe connections are one above another, which allows increasing the square and heat exchange intensity. The outcome of the study is a description of the mathematical analysis of the heat transmission process in the tank accumulator. We have shown a heat carrier thermophysical parameter dependence on the temperature.
