Abstract:

The usage of solar energy heating systems increased greatly during the last decade. Need to make a setup which acquires much of the Sun's radiation as per the output requirement. More than one hundred years ago, black painted water tanks were used as simple solar water heaters in a number of countries. As the development takes place total setup gets advanced. Our main objective is to keep the system in such a way that, yields a better result. The major equipment includes collector, heat-exchanger, storage tank, and pumps & pipes.

Keywords: Solar energy; Solar water heaters; Collector; Heat-exchanger; Storage tank.
