: Assume a flat-plate horizontal solar collector with an area of 5.5m2 . (a) Estimate the amount of solar energy produced by that collector per year if it is placed in location A where the average irradiance per day is 20,330 kJ/m2 . (b) Repeat (a) for location B where the average irradiance per day is 13,510 kJ/m2 . (c) If heating energy of coal is 30,000kJ/kg, determine the amount of coal that is required to produce the equivalent energy of that produced by the collector if it is placed in location A and if it is placed in location B.
