Review on Matrix Thermal Absorber Designs for Solar Air Collector

Solar thermal absorber is the main component of solar air collector. It absorbs solar radiation and converting energy received to thermal energy and transferring the energy by means of convection to working fluid, producing elevated air temperature output. Among thermal absorber used in solar air co...
