In this Master’s thesis, we present a theoretical study of solar energy. We present one
of the methods of exploiting solar energy, which is thermal conversion, by describing the flat
water solar collector, its operating principle, its various parameters, and its characteristics.
The numerical resolution of a planar water solar collector model, in the steady state,
was performed using a computational code written in MATLAB, taking into account the
variation of some collector parameters and the convergence of the evolution of the fluid
(water) temperature field. Through the approved digital model, the effect of some qualitative
and quantitative factors involved in the formation and operation of the flat water solar
collector on its thermal behavior was analyzed.
