A NOVEL METHOD OF POROUS MEDIA SIMULATION IN OPEN-FLOW PV/T COLLECTOR USING DIGITAL IMAGE PROCESSING

Using metal foam enhances heat transfer in thermal systems by increasing the contact area. In the present research, the effects of using metal foam and different water flow rates on the thermal performance of direct absorption flat solar collectors were examined numerically. This collector is attach...
