Resumo
Os coletores solares comumente utilizados no aquecimento de água, para o consumo doméstico, possuem a placa de aquecimento solar plana do tipo chapa - tubo. Devido à crescente utilização desses equipamentos, buscou-se, através deste trabalho, modificar um equipamento convencional, o qual recebeu, na placa solar, aletas de vidro, instaladas no plano vertical em relação à tampa de vidro, dividindo a mesma em diversas áreas, propiciando um aumento, tanto da reflexão dos raios infravermelhos em seu interior, quanto do efeito estufa. O objetivo do ensaio foi estudar o comportamento térmico desse equipamento, trabalhando a determinada vazão e obtendo as temperaturas com o emprego de termopares instalados em vários pontos do sistema, buscando a determinação da eficiência térmica da placa solar modificada. Para a determinação da eficiência, foram considerados o calor útil, o calor absorvido e as perdas de calor. As equações empregadas na determinação da eficiência térmica foram trabalhadas no programa Excel.Verificou-se que o equipamento apresentou um bom rendimento, atendendo as especificações definidas pelo INMETRO. A temperatura média de saída da água do equipamento apresentou valor superior a de equipamento similar, o mesmo não ocorreu com seu rendimento, embora as diferenças registradas tenham sido pequenas. A eficiência do equipamento não depende apenas dos parâmetros do projeto, mas também de outros fatores que levam a perda de energia.
The solar collectors commonly used in the water heating for domestic consumption possess the flat plate solar heating of plate type - tube. Due to increasing applications of those equipments the purpose was to modify the conventional, which received glass fins in the solar plate, installed in the vertical plan in relation to the glass cover, dividing the same in several areas, enabling reflection increase of the infrared rays in its interior as well as greenhouse effect. The thermal performance of the equipment has been studied analyzing the certain flow and obtaining the temperatures with the thermopairs installed in several points of the system and determining the thermal efficiency of the modified solar plate. The useful heat, the absorbed heat and the losses of heat were considered. The equations of the thermal efficiency were obtained in the Excel program. The equipment presented a good performance according to INMETRO specifications. The medium temperature of the water exit presented superior value when compared to a similar equipment. The same didn't occur with its performance, although the registered differences have been small. The efficiency of the equipment doesn't depend only on the parameters of the project, but also on other factors which lead to energy loss.
