Abstract
In the present work an attempt has been made to experimentally investigate the performance of a flat plate solar air heater. Experiments were performed to find the energy and exergy efficiency at different mass flow rate of air. It is observed that for a 16% increase in mass flow rate of air, energy efficiency increases by 20%, whereas exergy efficiency increases by 36%.
