Finite Volume Analysis of Artificially Roughened Solar Duct with Arbitrary Relative Gap Width and Profile

As the Solar effects continues to work at a rapid pace, it begins to generate heat. If this heat is not kept in check, the space could overheat and eventually increases itself. Fortunately, a cooling space include a solar duct, which dissipates the heat from the space, preventing it from overheating with the increase in heat dissipation from space and the reduction in overall form factors, thermal management becomes a more and more important element of solar duct product design. Both the performance reliability and life expectancy of solar duct are inversely related to the component temperature of the system. The relationship between the reliability and the operating temperature of a typical aluminum solar duct with artificial roughness component shows that a reduction in the temperature corresponds to an exponential increase in the reliability and life expectancy of the system. Therefore, long life and reliable performance of a component may be achieved by effectively controlling the solar duct operating temperature within the limits set by the device design engineers.
