A solar thermal collector collects heat by absorbing sunlight. The term "solar collector" commonly refers to a device for solar hot water heating, but may refer to large power generating installations such as solar parabolic troughs and solar towers or non-water heating devices such as solar cookers or solar air heaters.

AI Customer ServiceA solar collector, the special energy exchanger, converts solar irradiation energy either to the thermal energy of the working fluid in solar thermal applications, or to the electric energy
AI Customer ServiceIn residential systems, simple and cheap solar panels are used to collect the solar heat energy below 60°C. Residential panels for heat collection are referred to as flat plate collectors. Solar energy collectors are special kind of heat exchangers that transform solar radiation energy into internal energy of the transport medium.
The term "solar collector" commonly refers to a device for solar hot water heating, but may refer to large power generating installations such as solar parabolic troughs and solar towers or non- water heating devices such as solar cookers or solar air heaters. Solar thermal collectors are either non-concentrating or concentrating.
Solar thermal collectors have developed many diverse forms in the nearly one-hundred and twenty years since their first invention; ranging from solar ponds to dish and heliostat collectors. The total solar collector area installed worldwide is now estimated to be over 58×10 6 m 2.
Some common uses of solar collectors are: Heating systems. Heating pool water. Electricity production in large solar thermal power plants. Solar thermal collectors work based on the principle of absorbing solar energy. Although there are different types of solar collectors, as we will see later, the operating principle is similar in all of them.
This type of collector is generally used in solar power plants. A trough-shaped parabolic reflector is used to concentrate sunlight on an insulated tube (Dewar tube) or heat pipe, placed at the focal point, containing coolant which transfers heat from the collectors to the boilers in the power station.
Residential panels for heat collection are referred to as flat plate solar collectors. Solar collectors are special kind of heat exchangers that transform solar radiation energy into internal energy of the transport medium.
