Worksheet A - Calculation Of Delivered Solar Energy

PROJECT:

TYPE SOLAR HEATING SYSTEM:

RADIATION DATA SOURCE:

COLLECTOR TILT ANGLE:

HS	=	AVERAGE SOLAR RESOURCE PER DAY ON HORIZONTAL SURFACE (BTU/FT2)
A	=	SOLAR COLLECTOR AREA (APERTURE) (FT2)
E	=	SYSTEM EFFICIENCY FACTOR
N	=	NUMBER OF DAYS PER MONTH
R	=	CONVERSION FACTOR FOR HORIZONTAL RADIATION TO THE ANGLE
S'	=	TOTAL AMOUNT OF DELIVERED SOLAR ENERGY PER MONTH (MILLION BTU / MONTH)
