... embedded solar air heater employing impinging stable air jet array. Investigation is carried out following two main objectives, i.e., to obtain (i) instant and (ii) long thermal backups. In the reported design configuration, impinging stable air jets on absorber plate are obtained by reducing the flow path...

...Shailesh Kumar Shakya; Yadaba Mahanand; Jnana Ranjan Senapati This study analyzes the thermo-fluid characteristics of the solar air heater duct (SAHD) consisting of W-shaped transverse ribs on the collector plate. The results of the study are presented with the appearance of Nusselt number...

...Shailendra Kumar Chaurasiya; Satyender Singh This experimental and numerical investigation is intended to increase heat transfer, reduce pumping power, and present important guidelines on the use of confined submerged air jet impingement in solar air heater designs that employ an array of circular...
