Meriaura Energy’s collectors perform better than any other known flat plate collector for off-centre incident irradiation. When the sun shines with +/- 50 degree deviation from the perpendicular to the collector surface, our collectors still maintain up to 98% of their energy production efficiency. This allows our customers to benefit from solar heat from the early morning until late evening, even during early spring and late autumn days.
Meriaura Energy’s collectors have internal connection hoses that minimise thermal losses in the connections. Due to the connection hoses being an integrated part of the collectors, the collectors have been performance tested with the connection hoses attached. This means that our efficiency results include thermal losses from connections.
In our award-winning absorbers, the flow is always laminar. Therefore, the collectors also maintain their measured efficiency levels at low flow rates in short collector rows or during cloudy days – thereby ensuring performance remains high on the days it matters most.
