Opis

Water heating systems using solar energy is the predominant technology for exploitation of solar energy. Solar thermal conversion has higher conversion efficiency for domestic and industrial sectors. Flat-plate collector is the heart of solar water system. Compared to forced circulation, thermosyphon system has a higher impact in domestic sector due to its ease of operation, simplicity and less maintenance. Heat enhancement using passive techniques for natural as well as forced circulation is discussed here.
