摘要
Solar thermal collectors are among the most popular renewable energy research subjects. Automatic Data Acquisition Systems (ADAS) have greatly facilitated their experimental testing, but their high cost is a drawback. In this paper, we present the design and testing of a decentralized, low-cost alternative ADAS based on the ESP32 microcontroller and on open-source software. The proposed system can be used for the experimental characterization of water (or air) operated solar thermal collectors in accordance with the ISO 9806:2017 requirements, but it is also compatible with sensors with lower specifications. We present also its performance results when applied for the testing of a solar thermal collector.
