  2. Types of Flat-Plate Collector They are divided into two categories based on their usage and capability. · Water or liquid heater · Air heaters On the other hand, based on the mechanism of the solar-powered system, there are basically two different types of solar collectors. A solar system that is used to heat water is generally non concentrating collectors. When the heat energy is less than 200 degrees F non concentrating collectors are the best choice. It has three main components: · A metal plate that absorbs solar energy · A transparent cover that allows solar energy to pass through · A layer of insulation that reduces heat loss The collector also has a metal tube attached to the absorber. www.velpasolar.com

  3. Concentrating Solar Collectors The area of intercepting solar radiation on concentrating collector is greater, sometimes it is a hundred times greater than the absorber area. The highly reflective collector focuses solar energy on an absorber. The collector moves throughout the day to maintain the degree of concentration on the absorber. It absorbs direct, diffuse, and reflected components of solar radiation. The flat plate collectors are fixed in tilt and orientation and therefore, it doesn’t require tracking the Sun. A well-made flat plate is easy to make and is low in cost You can operate the plates at comparatively high efficiency www.velpasolar.com

  4. The usage of thermal energy is constantly on the rise. Be it heating water or the interior of the building or generating electricity solar-powered system is widely used in residential and commercial space. Today we will discuss the most important parts of solar-powered systems and their mechanism. Maintaining a residential or commercial solar system could be tricky if you are not aware of the parts and their components. Flat-plate collectors are the most common types of non-concentrating collectors for water and space heating. It is the primary component of a solar hot water cylinder that intercepts and absorbs solar energy. www.velpasolar.com
