Abstract

This research paper studied about solar water heater with its construction and applications. If we see today’s scenario, the hot water uses are increasing day by day in industries as well as in domestic and commercial purposes. In the current era, we are using various resources like coal, petroleum products, electrical energy, etc. for heating the water. These resources are too expensive for heating the water. Solar power is the best resource for replacing the conventional resources for water heating purpose. In solar water heater system, solar energy is used to heat up the water. For this purpose, we require large amount of solar energy; this we achieve by using solar collector. A solar collector is a device that converts solar radiation into heat. For the storage of warm water, an insulated tank is also required. In this research paper, we also see about construction and components we use and literature review on solar water heater is also presented.
