Abstract

Experimental investigation for determining the optimal tilt angle of flat-plate solar heater installation in Denpasar city to optimize the thermal energy performance. This preliminary research focused on the performance of a flat-plate-thermosyphon solar water heater system based on temperature difference and total heat absorbed by the water in June until July. The tilt angles were between 15 to 45-degrees with north-facing orientation. The energy-saving in the water provided by solar collectors depends on thermal stratification with in pipe collector. This condition was evaluated by measuring the temperature difference of the header pipe. The results display that the temperature difference inside the collector’s 40-degree tilt angle has the best performance. The total heat absorbed between 6 am – 6 pm by the collector at 40-degree higher than the other collector’s tilt angle
