The system has been theoreticallyinvestigated for different geometrical roughness parameters by help of energy balance equations between the elements of collector.Geometrical roughness parameters such as ratio of the relative roughness height (RRH), relative roughness pitch (RRP), and groovepositions to pitch (GP/PR) are examined for Reynolds number range from 3000 to 21,000.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTHEORETICAL INVESTIGATION OF A SOLAR AIR HEATER ROUGHENED BY RIBS AND GROOVESArticle1712117023047594
