2. Solar water heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_water_heating

   Solar water heating (SWH) is heating water by sunlight, using a solar thermal collector. A variety of configurations are available at varying cost to provide solutions in different climates and latitudes. SWHs are widely used for residential and some industrial applications. [ 1 ][ 2 ]

3. Thermosiphon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermosiphon

   Thermosiphon. Thermosiphon (or thermosyphon) is a method of passive heat exchange, based on natural convection, which circulates a fluid without the necessity of a mechanical pump. Thermosiphoning is used for circulation of liquids and volatile gases in heating and cooling applications such as heat pumps, water heaters, boilers and furnaces ...

4. Solar thermal collector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_thermal_collector

   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.

7. Passive solar building design - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_solar_building_design

   Passive solar building design. This image shows the characteristics of a Passive Solar home and its benefits. In passive solar building design, windows, walls, and floors are made to collect, store, reflect, and distribute solar energy, in the form of heat in the winter and reject solar heat in the summer. This is called passive solar design ...
