A flat-plate solar collector is 2 m long and 1 m wide and is inclined 60o to the horizontal. The cover plate is separated from the absorber plate by an air gap of 2 cm thick. If the temperatures of the cover plate and the absorber plate are 305 K and 335 K, respectively. Calculate the convective heat loss. Take the pressure at 1 atm.

Answer:

164.4 W

Step-by-step explanation:

We can define Heat loss as a measure of the total transfer of heat through the fabric of a building from inside to the outside, either from conduction, convection, radiation, or any combination of the these.

Please kindly check attachment for the solution of the heat loss as asked in the question.
