Abstract

The main objective of the present work is to assess the integration potential of the different solar water heating collectors for building use. The evaluation was performed for FES, Morocco based on a dynamic simulation which consider the temporary variation of meteorological data. Firstly, the investigation includes the characterization of the different solar systems performances, namely: Flat plat collector (FPC), Evacuated tube collector (ETC) in order to meet the hot water demand of 200 l/day using a collector area of 2 m2 and a storage tank with a capacity of 300 l. Secondly, the study reveals the advantages of the FPC and ETC serial coupling to further ensure the domestic hot water demand at an encouraging price ratio.
