Can I read PCM-Enhanced Solar Collector Efficiency on EtoBox?

PCM-Enhanced Solar Collector Efficiency by Suraj Mulay is a document available to read on EtoBox.

What is PCM-Enhanced Solar Collector Efficiency about?

1) The document numerically investigates the performance of a thermosyphon solar flat plate collector with a back layer of phase change material (PCM), specifically paraffin wax. 2) Numerical results show that introducing PCM increases the average efficiency of the collector by 25.64% compared to a conventional collector without PCM. 3) The PCM stores latent heat during melting, allowing useful heat gain from the collector even after sunlight has ended and during off-sunshine periods.
