Does anybody know a simplified methodology or equation to estimate the temperature of a solar collector/absorber? I want to calculate the energy performance and the energy yield. I have Data for a typical year with 1 hour intervals. Thanks a lot!
you might look at my lecture. you can calculate the temperature by using the equations in the slides
Please try to check the following papers:

* You didn't mention which type of solar collector in your question?
Thanks a lot! I will take a look inside the papers and slides. I will give you feedback.
*I want to use the equation for flat plate collectors and evacuated tube collectors...
you can use utilizability equations to estimate the temperature of solar collector.
kindly do through " solar engineering of thermal processes": Duffie and Beckman - utilizabity of flat plate solar collector.
you may get some idea regrading what are the controlling variable in a solar collector and ways to maximize the performance of solar collector.
