Study of stratification in a (ICSSWH) Integrated CollectorStorage Solar Water Heater. (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Junaidi, H., Henderson, D., Muneer, T., Grassie, T., & Currie, J. (2006, June). Study of stratification in a (ICSSWH) Integrated CollectorStorage Solar Water Heater. Presented at 9th AIAA/ASME Joint Thermophysis & Heat Transfer Conference

Stratification inside the water storage tank of a solar heater is a desirable natural phenomenon that improves the collector output. For an ICS storage heater type, where the storage tank is in direct contact with the heating surface (absorber plate)...
