Abstract

In this communication, an inexpensive underground shallow solar pond (SSP) water heater has been suggested, and its performance has also been studied in detail. An explicit analytical expression for temperature has been obtained. The effect of various parameters, viz duration of covering the system by insulation, duration of flow rate, flow rate, insulation thickness, water mass, etc. have also been discussed. Numerical calculations have been made for a typical cold day.
