3. Solar thermal collector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_thermal_collector

   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. [1] Solar thermal collectors are either non-concentrating or concentrating.

4. Solar water heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_water_heating

   When a solar water heating and hot-water central heating system are used together, solar heat will either be concentrated in a pre-heating tank that feeds into the tank heated by the central heating, or the solar heat exchanger will replace the lower heating element and the upper element will remain to provide for supplemental heat. However ...

5. Solar thermal energy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_thermal_energy

   The sun’s free energy can also be used to heat water to fulfil domestic hot water demands, such as the hot water that comes out of taps. Solar thermal water heating systems can provide approximately 50% of a property’s annual hot water demand (depending on the size of the property, its location etc) which in turn can help homeowners make ...

6. Storage water heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Storage_water_heater

   Solar heat is clean and renewable. This is the most modern system. Increasingly, solar powered water heaters are being used. Their solar thermal collectors are installed outside dwellings, typically on the roof or walls or nearby, and the potable hot water storage tank is typically a pre-existing or new conventional water heater, or a water heater specifically designed for solar thermal.

7. Central solar heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_solar_heating

   Central solar heating is a sub-class of 'large-scale solar heating' systems - a term applied to systems with solar collector areas greater than 500 m 2. Aquifers, boreholes and artificial ponds (costing €30/m 3 ) are used as heat storage (up to 90% efficient) in some central solar heating plants, which later extract the heat (similar to ...
