description | In the present study, the effect of increasing absorption area by using two different cross-section shapes of rising pipe namely semi-circle cross-section (model -A-) and elliptic cross-section (model -B-) on the temperature distribution of operating liquid within rising pipe of the FPSC is studied numerically and experimentally. Experimental tests are conducted under weather Baghdad – Iraq, while the numerical results are obtained by using Ansys Fluent CFD. The difference between the experimental findings and numerical findings for the average temperature of the water in the tank and the temperature of the operating liquid at exit rising pipe is 8.12 % and 8.36 % respectively. The results have shown that the temperature distribution for all new models higher than the traditional model. Furthermore, model -B- has higher other models under study. Hence, the best model according to the current study is model -B- increase by (2.4%), (2.2%) and (2.5%) regarding the temperature of the operating liquid at the inlet, center, and outlet respectively compared to the traditional model |
