Abstract
A Transient Simulation program (TRNSYS) was used to formulate the simulation of a domestic hot water system. Solar percent utilization and collector efficiency was observed for different set temperatures and hot water demand. The effect of hot water demand pattern on these parameters was likewise investigated. Regression analysis was used to forecast solar percent utilization with respect to set temperature and daily hot water demand.
