Abstract

A solar water-heating system is a device to store hot water available from a combination of flat-plate collectors (FPCs) and evacuated tubular solar collectors (ETSCs) at a moderate-temperature. Solar collectors can be connected in a combination of series and parallel per the requirement. Such a water heating system is mostly used during either off-sunshine hours or when there is a low level of solar radiation.
