Effects of different collector's area on the coupling of a thermosiphon collector and a single zone

- We simulate a thermosiphon collector associated to a single zone using TRNSYS.
- We examine the temperature of water in collector, in tank and in single zone.
- We study the temporal evolution of the temperature and the energy for 11 h operation in January and 2880 h operation in winter.
- The system gives good results in all operating states.
- The use of solar energy in the residential building is interesting.
