Abstract : This work represents the performance analysis during the annual time period of a solar water heating system
equipped with flat plate solar collectors for the Mediterranean climate conditions. For this purpose, recorded data from a field
trial installation are exploited. The recorded data obtained every each 5-min are used to perform the analysis during a yearly
period. The analysis is performed by using mathematical models and by representing the results for each month. Monthly
values of useful heat gain from the solar collector field, useful heat gain from the storage, collector field efficiency, system
efficiency, and solar fraction offered a clear view regarding the operation of a forced circulation solar water heating systems for
this climate region. Also, the annual energy balance of the system obtained from calculation gives a clear view regarding the
useful heat gains and the thermal losses in the considered system.
Keywords- Experimental Analysis, Flat Plate Collector, Long Term Performance, Solar Water Heating System.
