Solar cooling Solar heating system can be used also for solar cooling. Two main principles of solar cooling: Absorption cooling; Cooled water with temperature 7-12 C, used for cooling of buildings with conventional cooling or air conditioning systems. Temperature of water supplied by solar thermal system (80-85 C) Compact absobtion cooling system, cooling power 5kW, temperature of cooling water 5-7 C

Solar cooling As part of ventilation systems combined with desiccant cooling of fresh air. Before humidifying the air should be as dry as possible. To achieve that desiccant wheel is used. The wheel absorbs moisture and is dried by return air from STS(70 C)

Connection of large collector areas Erneuerbare EnergieRenewable Energy Technologies

Requirements on collector connections Heat transfer between absorbers and heat distribution media as good as possible Pressure losses by the collector flow as small as possible Standard dimensions from the manufacturers should be used To reduce the calorific losses, the material and assembly costs a small cross section of pipes is needed Erneuerbare EnergieRenewable Energy Technologies

Advantages of large-scale installations compared to single collectors Large-scale installation Single collector Reduction in installation time by crane Reduction in connection number Daily performance of over 300m² collector surface (100m² inclusive elevation ) Quality increase by process and locally reduced connection expenditure Erneuerbare EnergieRenewable Energy Technologies

Functional and yield control monitoring

Table of content What is a functional and yield control? For what reason are they used? Different quality standards of a functional and yield control Erneuerbare EnergieRenewable Energy Technologies

Functional Control Manual visual control control of the plant operator Selective system temperatures, pressures Heat insulation condition Connection control Selective control of the system operation Optionally readjustment of the system operation after some months During the maintenance all points should be covered!! Automatic functional control intelligent regulation (easily programmable) automated error message (SMS, email, call, etc..) continuous monitoring of the plant operation (temperatures, pressures, etc..) Erneuerbare EnergieRenewable Energy Technologies

Yield control Manual yield control Readout of heat meters (monthly, annually...) Automatic yield control Automatic readout of heat meters and further sensors (M-Bus, pulse out,..) Can serve also as rough functional control Erneuerbare EnergieRenewable Energy Technologies

For what reason are they used? In Germany the use of heat meters in solar systems is demanded In some parts of Austria it is a condition for funding Minimum solar yield: 350 kwh/m²y Some companies which build dwellings ask for a specific solar yield where Achievement and/or quality profile is prescribed Guaranteeing is taken over by the installer (mostly common together with the collector supplier) less yield is determined in the first three years and projected on life span disadvantage: guarantee is void from the planer! Mostly manual heat meter readout Erneuerbare EnergieRenewable Energy Technologies

Different quality standards of a functional and yield control Minimal plant monitoring Use of a heat meter Regularly maintenance heat meter should regularly be readout Optional: Use of a simple heat meter combinable with the control device ( amount of heat, flow and return temperatures are saved in the control device; possible readout; for small applications additional also with the pump running time conceivably) Usage: mainly in single family houses Erneuerbare EnergieRenewable Energy Technologies

Large solar applications Routine monitoring (failure safety ) Alarm-steered monitoring of the plant operation By means of appropriate control devices (EMC 2000, Schneid, etc..) or control systems Error message in consequence of programming logic or logic in the data analysis Criterion: temperature and radiation conditions, system pressure No evaluation of plant yields Conditions: easily programmable control device or control system (with the ability to mail alarms automatically), modem, alarm acceptance place) Erneuerbare EnergieRenewable Energy Technologies

Large solar applications Detailed plant monitoring (optimize and research) Flow rate and pair of temperatures in each hydraulic circle (energy balances), storage temperatures, running times, etc.. By means of appropriate control device or own data logger; bus systems are only conditionally suitably, because: Memory interval periods mostly much too roughly (max. 1x daily; e.g. m-bus) Compatibility to other measure systems is only conditionally given Error reporting criterion: Temperature- and/or radiation conditions, system pressure Error message "on-line" or from logic of the daily automatic data analysis Detailed analysis of operational behaviour (energies, temperatures, losses, etc..) in appropriate temporal resolution Conditions: easily programmable control devices or control systems with the ability to buffer data sets and to spend it in an appropriate format and/or to mail alarms automatically, modem, alarm and data acceptance place Erneuerbare EnergieRenewable Energy Technologies

Optimization measures to increase the entire plant efficiency A technical deficiency recognized in the plant monitoring is not only concerning the solar system but also the entire heat supply or hot water system! The recognized technical deficiencies are mostly not acute/serious (save money) The arising technical deficiencies are often very similar and can partly be repeated in individual plants Early recognition can minimize negative effects on the plant efficiency and the solar yield!

Quality of solar thermal systems dr. Ciril Arkar, University of Ljubljana, Faculty of mechanical engineering

Quality of solar thermal systems Slovenia has a lot of experiences with STS and system parts in 80s the amount of yearly installed solar collector is similar to amount yearly installed today 6.000 14.000 m 2 quality of components was bed a lot of systems is not operational any more similar experiences in other European countries In last years, great development: technical development quality control design and control of operation

Quality of solar thermal systems Technological development great increase in quality of solar collectors new technologies adopted implementation Quality control development of new standards and procedures of testing, also for the whole system upgrade of standards with quality control

Quality of solar thermal systems Proper design of solar thermal systems life expectancy depends on proper operation design based on known heat demand use of software Monitoring of operation of solar thermal system sufficient measuring equipment enables flaws detection required for subsidy approval recover confidence in solar thermal systems

Efficiency of solar thermal collector Technical development of STC increased efficiency of STC. Efficiency of STC is defined as quotient between output heat flow and solar radiation. It can be calculated using equation: SSE = Q SSE A. SSE G glob, SSE= = F. pokrov. abs F. U SSE. SSE ((T sr T ok )/G glob, )

Solar collectors SSE= = F. pokrov. abs F. U SSE. SSE ((T sr T ok )/G glob, ) Higher temperature Low solar radiation

Testing of solar collectors Usually all construction and optical parameters of solar collectors are not known That is why the efficiency of solar collector should be measured. Heat gained by the collector is not calculated but measured using calorimetric method. The method is defined by standard SIST EN 12975 and SIST ISO 9806. F. U SSE SSE= o F. U SSE T sr T ok ( ). SSE G glob, SSE= o a. 1 T *

Testing of solar collectors Efficiency of glassed collectors (SIST EN 12975) can be approximated using second order polynomial ( o, a 1, a 2 ), with unglazed solar collectors the wind velocity should be evaluated also ( o, b 1, b 2 ). SSE= o a. 1 T * a. 2 G. T*2 G = 800 W/m 2 u=4 m/s u=0 m/s SSE= o (b 1 + b. 2 u). T *

Testing of solar collectors Test of efficiency based on SIST EN 12975 consists of heat loses and also tests of durability, reliability, safety and life expectancy

Testing of solar collectors Tests carried out on external test site. Durability test are performed in clear weather and high air temperatures.

Thermal storage requirements and testing Thermal storage used with solar thermal system should fulfill safety requirements, anti corrosive requirements and health requirements: Life expectancy of water thermal heat storage is important factor. Thermal storage should be constructed from anticorrosive materials or coated with anticorrosive substances, e.g. enamel. Enameled thermal storage should have cathode protection magnesium anode. damaged and porous places are filled by hard water deposits Temperature between 40 in 55 C, usual in thermal storages, are most suitable for legionella growth (35 species, at least 17 dangerous to human health). water heating above 60 C kills the bacteria thermal storage overheated daily circulating lines should be overheated also

Testing and operation of solar thermal systems Operation of solar thermal system for heating and hot water production can be predicted based on measurement of system or use of simulation programs: SIST EN 12976 Result of test is yearly prediction of heat gained by solar thermal system for arbitrary location in Europe. 60 SSE 5,2 m 2 ; V hranilnika = 300 l -10 Daily operation of solar thermal system can be predicted using charts. Charts preset the operation of solar thermal system regarding solar radiation, daily air and environment temperature.
