dc.description.abstract | In the present review paper the existing solar water heating systems are studied with their applications. Now a
days hot water is used for domestic, commercial and industrial purposes. Various resources i. e coal, diesel,
gas etc, are used to heat water and for steam production. Solar energy is the chief alternative to replace the
conventional energy sources. The solar thermal water heating system is the technology to hardness the plenty
amount of free available solar thermal energy. The solar thermal system is designed to meet the energy
demands. The size of the system depends on availability of solar radiation, temperature requirement of
consumer, geographical condition and arrangement of the solar system etc. Therefore, it is necessary to design
the solar water heating system as per above parameters. The available literature is reviewed to understand the
construction, arrangement, applications and sizing of the solar thermal system | en_US |
