Abstract

Analytic expressions are presented for calculating the optimal (from the heat engineering standpoint) thickness of the closed air layer of the “translucent cover—radiation absorbing heat-exchange panel” system of flat solar collectors, under which the convective heat losses through the examined layer are minimal.
