Solar thermal energy is one of the most promising renewable energy resources. The solar thermal technologies convert solar radiation into heat that can be directly utilized for various applications .
Solar thermal water heating system is a device that helps in heating water by using the energy from the SUN. This energy is totally free. Water is easily heated to a temperature of 60-80° C.
Solar thermal energy can be collected and stored for later use, water remains cheapest heat storage media with higher storage capacity within the stipulated temperature range upto 80°C.
On an Average earth receive 5 to 6 Kwh/m2
Compound Parabolic Concentrator
The compound parabolic reflector is constructed by using segments of two parabolas. These parabolas are arranged in such a way that the focus ……
Parabolic Trough Concentrator
The parabolic reflector is constructed as per the geometric design. The focus of the parabola is always a straight line. Because of the Specific shape of …..
Solar Concentrators
- Compound Parabolic Concentrator
- Water upto 90°C can be obtained using these concentrators.
- The unique shape of the 2 parabola profiles, acting as reflectors, helps to capture maximum rays.
- These are basically non-tracking concentrators and can be mounted on slating roofs, terraces or on ground.
- If they are built to track, the efficiency increases by 30-40% upon tracking.
- Under special design conditions a low pressure steam can be generated.
- Parabolic Trough Concentrator
- Heat transfer Fluid upto 150°C can be obtained using PTC.
- The sunrays falling on the parabola (reflector) are reflected onto the receiver tube.
- The fluid flowing through the receiver tube gets heated due to the solar heat.
- This is a tracking collector. As the sun travels across the horizon, the parabola rotates, such that it always faces the sun.
- This ensures maximum energy capture.

Advantages
- Solar Heaters help utilizing free natural resource such as sun light and thus helps in saving Fuel/electricity costs.
- It requires basic fittings and a onetime investment and after that its free for up-to 20 years.
- It is a renewable and clean energy source so it reduces over carbon foot print.
- ROI in 5 years
- Accelerated Depreciation Benefit.
Limitation
- Huge Initial Capital Expenditure.
- Require huge installation area.
- Working of solar heaters depends up on abundance and availability of direct sun light.
- It heats only in day time, however if the storage tank is well insulated, heated water can be stored and used even at night.
- It will not be very helpful in rainy season or foggy days.
