An apartment in Buraimi requires 74540 Whr of heat during winter season for the month of January to March to retain a constant inside temperature of 295K. What will be the required mass of water for a day’s worth of heat, collector surface area for an all-solar heating system that has 34.65% efficiency? Assume the temperature of the hot water at the outlet of the storage tank is 72.5oC. Take the global radiation in Buraimi for the month of January as 4.02 kWh/m2/day, February as 5.28 kWh/m2 /day and March as 6.06 kWh/m2/day. What changes would you observe in the above
