Abstract

A laboratory scale solar water heater rig ts constructed to allow better understanding of the heating system of a solar water heater using thermosiphon system. Thermosiphon is a system that circulates water from the tank to the collector plate and back to the tank without the aid of any pumps. In this project, a flat platte black copper collector is used. The reason why black copper is used is because,black absorb heat better than any other. A well insulated stainless steel tank is used to minimize the heat transfer to the environment. Copper piping is used for the cold and hot water circulation for better efficiency. Finally the efficiency of the flat plate collector is calculate to evaluate the heat absorb by the flat plate to heat up the water.
