Design and Optimization of Fins in Solar Flat Plate Collector Using CFD
Abstract: The main objective of this paper is to present design of solar flat plate collector with internal fins i. e. , 2, 3, 4 and without fins using CAD software to perform thermal analysis in the month of March at 11am, 12, 1pm & 2pm keeping the mass flow rate as constant to optimize the internal fins. For modeling purpose GAMBIT 2.4 is used & for analysis ANSYS FLUENT 14.5 is used.
Keywords: Modeling, Thermal Analysis, Internal Fins
