Abstract
ABSTRACT We have designed, constructed and tested two types of low cost solar water heaters. The first is a thermosiphon unit consisting of a flat plate collector in conjunction with a storage tank, using air as a heat exchange working medium, instead of liquid. The second is an integrated collector storage system, using a cylindrical collector-storage tank placed horizontally in a curved mirror envelope. With proper design and operation of these two types of water heaters we can improve their performance, approaching the efficiency obtained by the commonly used and more expensive solar water heaters.
