Abstract
A double pass solar air heater was fabricated and integrated with thermal storage system. Paraffin wax is used as a thermal storage medium. The performance of this heater was studied for different configurations. The solar heater integrated with thermal storage delivered comparatively high temperature. The efficiency of the air heater integrated with thermal storage was also higher than the air heater without thermal storage system. The study concluded that the presence of the thermal storage medium at the absorber plate is the best configuration.
