The chart exemplifies the greater effectiveness of vacuum-pipe collectors over flat-panel collectors in converted solar energy per square meter (MJ/m2) per month.
The comparison coefficient (VP/FP) reveals the efficiency advantages of the vacuum-pipe collectors by showing their relative performance times that of the flat-panel collectors.
For example, the table shows that vacuum-pipe collectors are more than 4 times more effective than flat-panel collectors in the coldest winter months (December and January - for the Northern Hemisphere). For all months, vacuum-pipe collectors preserve a stable pattern of higher effectiveness than flat-panel solar collectors. |
