Abstract

On-off differential controller is one of the very important components which affect the system performance of the active solar thermal system. In this study, analyses were made regarding the influence of "on-off" setting temperature on the system efficiency and on the electrical consumption by circulation pump. This study was performed by experiment as well as the computer simulation using TRNSYS program. The simulation system was developed in this study was verified the its reliability by the experimental results. As a results, the turn off temperature(${\Delta}T_{off}$) is much more influence than the turn on temperature(${\Delta}T_{on}$) on the system efficiency. It is more clear and sensitivity in winter season. Finally the optimum on-off setting value and the system on-off pattern according to the several different kind of system was also represented.
