What is the efficiency of a solar collector made of an aluminium canister?
Hi there, As part of my A2 physics coursework investigation, i want to calculate the efficiency of an aluminium canister modeled as a solar collector. The basic set up of the apparatus is: - Lamp (40W light bulb) at a fixed distance of 5cm away from the aluminium canister (which is...- johnboy11

Undergrad Calculating Energy Received by Water-Antifreeze Solution
Thank you for your reply Mapes. Unfortunately i have used the allocated time for my experiment and so cannot further investigate - i actually wished i could now! The detail you have go into is way past A2 level (A level), but I am sure, that with such poor data gatherings, that with some...- johnboy11
