Abstract

The double MaReCo (symmetric) solar collector (DM-CPVT) has been designed and developed by MG Sustainable Engineering AB (MG) and the University of Gävle (HiG). Performance and overall electrical and thermal parameters of the collector have been studied in this paper. The outdoor tests have been performed in Sweden during the summer months of 2020 and in Greece in September of 2020. The tests in Sweden mostly focused on the electrical parameters, while the ones in Greece on the thermal ones. The testing facilities in both locations are also described in this paper. The information on the thermal performance of a collector is important for the prediction of the energy output of any solar system. The thermal properties assessment of the DM-CPVT collector followed the procedures of the ISO 9806:2017 standard and reported.
