CALCULATIONSAIM: TO FIND REQUIRED ENERGY

Q=m.c.ΔT

Q=heat required(J) m=mass of water(kg) = 50L :: 50kg

Cwater=4200J/kgK ΔT=change in temperature(K) = (55-25)°C

CALCULATIONSFrom Q = m.c.ΔT, Q = 6.3 x 106 J

1 tube maximum heat absorption = 60W 12 tubes maximum heat absorption = 720W

Average time in optimum conditions = 6 hours

Minimum average heat absorption rate = 291.67W

Minimum absorption efficiency of system = 40%

Minimum time in optimum conditions = 2hr 25min 48s

1 tube effective absorption area = 0.105m2 12 tubes effective absorption area = 1.26m2

Maximum heat available in optimum conditions = 1726.2W

CALCULATIONSKEY POINTS:

LOCATION: KENYA, AFRICA

Solar radiation from the sun in Kenya with no distortion or obstructions = 1370W/m2

It would operate at maximum conditions as long as 41% of the sunlight is absorbed.

It would operate at minimum conditions as long as 16% of the sunlight is absorbed.
