Dipl.-Ing. Danjana Theis dth Dipl.-Ing. Danjana Theis dth After successfully completing this module, students will: - be familiar with different types/functionality of thermal solar collectors - be able to implement a solar collector in a power test bench - be able to carry out metrological tests according to internationally recognized standards (ISO 9806: Solar energy - Solar thermal collectors - Test methods) - be able to evaluate measurement data and results and prepare a lab report according to ISO 9806 1. Basics (Lecture: 12 hours) - Design and function of different thermal solar collectors - Performance characterization of solar collectors - Characteristic values (thermal, optical) and their classification - Introduction to testing and certification procedures in the field of solar thermal energy 2. Required measurement technology and hydraulics (lab experiment in small groups of 3-4 persons, 12 h) - Measuring radiation (global, direct, diffuse solar radiation) - Measuring temperatures (Immersion sensors in hydraulic lines, contact sensors, ...) - Volume (magnetic-inductive) resp. mass flow measurement (Coriolis) - Software-controlled data acquisition systems (Introduction to Keysight Vee Pro) - Integrating the collector in a temperature-controlled hydraulic circuit 3. Experimental determination, evaluation and documentation (lab experiment in small groups, 36 h) - of the conversion degree (optical efficiency) of the collector - of the efficiency curve between 20 °C and 90 °C - Determining the gross annual yield of the tested collector under reference conditions - Seminaristic instruction in the lab - Self-study based on experiment documentation and recommended/required reading - Lab experiments, analysis and documentation - Creation of a lab report - Volker Quaschning - Regenerative Energiesysteme - Technologie, Berechnung, Simulation - Ursula Eicker - Solare Technologien für Gebäude - ISO 9806: 2014: Solar energy - Solar thermal collectors - Test methods” - Handbuch zum Messdatenerfassungssystem Agilent 34970A Thu Mar 12 15:35:33 CET 2026, CKEY=eelsa, BKEY=ee, CID=[?], LANGUAGE=en, DATE=12.03.2026
