Experimental Investigation of an Inexpensive Sky Temperature Measuring Device. Final Report, June 1, 1977-June 30, 1979

Description: The objectives were to develop a simple approach for determining clear sky temperature from ground air temperature and absolute humidity and to develop an inexpensive device for direct measurement of sky temperature. The analytical approach taken was similar to that developed by Bliss. A simpler model to estimate sky temperature to acceptable accuracy, however, was not achieved. A simple device to measure sky temperature was designed and tested but development efforts within the means of the pr… more

Comparative Performance of Two Types of Evacuated Tubular Solar Collectors in a Residential Heating and Cooling System. Final Report, October 1, 1977-September 30, 1978. [Csu Solar House 1]

Description: Solar House I, the first residential solar system test facility at the Colorado State University, is described. Provision was made for the removal and replacement of the various subsystems so that the facility could be utilized to evaluate other residential size solar components and systems. Two evacuated tube collectors and one flat plate collector were evaluated. The operations history, system performance, performance assessment, and comparison with model are included. (MHR)

Variability of Solar Radiation at Four Selected Stations in the United States. Final Report, October 1, 1977-September 30, 1978

Description: The solar radiations considered are the total of direct and diffuse radiant energies received on a horizontal surface at ground level by a pyranometer during solar hours. Four stations, at Seattle-Tacoma, Washington; Madison, Wisconsin; Charleston, South Carolina; and Albuquerque, New Mexico were selected to represent different climatic conditions across the United States. The data were obtained from the National Climatic Center, Asheville, North Carolina. The data can be fitted by either a nor… more

Performance Evaluation of a Solar Air-Heating and Nocturnal Cooling System in Csu Solar House Ii. Final Report, June 1, 1977-September 30, 1978

Description: The solar heating system in Solar House II consists of 67.1 m/sup 2/ of double-glazed air-heating collectors with flat-black absorbers, 10.3 m/sup 3/ of pebble bed storage, air-to-water heat exchanger for preheating domestic water and one blower to circulate the air through the system. The nocturnal cooling system consists of an evaporative cooler and utilizes the pebble bed for cool storage. A schematic diagram of the system is shown.

Comparative Performance of Two Types of Evacuated Tubular Solar Collectors in a Residential Heating and Cooling System. Final Report, October 1 1977-September 30 1978 (Including 1974-1977 Operating Results Comparisons)

Description: Two types of evacuated tubular solar collectors have been operated in space heating, cooling, and domestic hot water heating systems in Colorado State University Solar House I. An experimental collector from Corning Glass works supplied heat to the system from January 1977 through February 1978, and an experimental collector from the Phillips Research Laboratory, Aachen, which is currently in use, has been operating since August 1978. A flat absorber plate inside a single-walled glass tube is u… more

Off-Peak Electric Auxiliary Heat for Solar Air-Heating Systems. Final Report, June 1, 1977-December 31, 1978

Description: The performance of various solar auxiliary heating system options is examined by means of computer simulation. Systems which utilize off-peak electrical energy, which is stored in a thermal reservoir for use during the on-peak period, are examined. A storage reservoir which is separate from the solar reservoir is found to be preferable. Performance is generally not found to be sensitive to the time at which off-peak energy is available. Control schemes that predict energy requirements for a for… more
