Performance of a solarium: An analytical study
AbstractIn this communication, a combination of phase change component material (PCCM) and water wall as a link wall in a solarium have been proposed and analysed for load levelling in the living space of the solarium. The choice of the aforesaid combination as a link wall has been made because of relatively high heat transfer coefficient of water and greater thermal energy storage potential of the combination. The relatively greater thermal storage potential of the proposed combination reduces the temperature swings in the living space and provides, thereby a comfortable living environment. Analytical expression for living space temperature as a function of climatic and system parameters as well as various heat transfer coefficients have been derived. Numerical calculations have been carried out for a typical day of North America (Boulder) for zero ventilation rate. It is concluded that the proposed combination as a link wall gives best thermal load levelling.
