seyede sahar Hosseini

Hi Amit,what is your problem about geometry?and which properties do you need for glass and steel? I simulate solar air heater and you explain more i can help you.

Amit Roy

Thank you seyede sahar Hosseini for your comments.

Could you please send me any pdf file or papers that has detail explanation of the simulation of solar air heater.

Jd Vacey

Hello Amit

I Was Curious in your topic and did a search found this Journal that may be of Help.

happy hunting.
