Abstract

In this research a floor heating solar system had been studied and installed in renewable energy lab in the Mechanical and Electrical Engineering Faculty-Damascus University. The ssystem was simulated by using Trnsys program, and experimental results were compared with theoretical results given by Trnsys. Results were so close considering thermal losses and measuring faults. Finally project's feasibility was calculated in order to get saving rate and payback period were calculated.
