Photos - Screenshot (1125).png Fullscreen - Problem No 1 (50 pts) Describe the design of a solar thermal conversion system for a residential building. The design should be based on solid engineering concepts, and the performance should be presented for typical operating conditions for which the design was conformed. We ask you to design a solar thermal system that will provide space heating, and hot water for a residential building in Long Island, New York, of a family of 5. You may consider technologies such as radiant heating, heating, or any other approach to deliver the heating loads. The residence is a two story building with a net floor area close to 2,700ft' divided evenly between floors with a rectangular configuration of 45 x 30ft with the longest side south facing. The peak height of the building is 35 ft. For the heating system, consider that design room conditions for the room should remain at 68°F and 50% relative humidity. The heating load may be estimated using Degree-Days method or any approximate method. The system should deliver 30 GJ of annual load of hot water at a minimum temperature of 120°F. The design should address the following elements; For heating system: Type (i.e. radiant or air heating) O Solar thermal collector receiving system (i.e. flat plate, concentrator, manufacturer) o Location and typical weather data or conditions (You may use data from NY City if available) o Monthly hot water and heating space loads in MJ/Month Solar resource available at the site (monthly and design days) 0 Total monthly and annual energy required o Sizing of solar thermal receiving system in number of collectors, total annual energy, and total area) o Type and sizing of solar thermal storage system (in Gal; water; PCM) O Size and type of backup system in kW or Btu/hr) Thermal performance of solar thermal system for design day o Monthly and annual solar fractions System layout including mounting structure, auxiliary components, piping layout (i.e. pumps) o Net annual energy savings O Life-cycle cost analysis O Environmental benefits measured in Tons of CO2 o Physical Layout of Design. 55"F 2:25 PM Cloudy 4/25/2022
