“…PCM has been used frequently by lots of researchers, although, Quanquan Luo [16] examined and discussed the double-pass of air type collector with embedded rod in the tubes & PCM. Piotr Olczak [17] presented heat loss analysis on the influence of ETC tracker with mirror parabolic reflector. Aluminium fins were assembled, the amplified solar radiation caused by mirror parabolic reflector were analysed and evaluated that maximum difference in the preferential and least profitable variation wasn't exceeded 2.5 % of the radiant energy absorbed.…”

With large evolution in the solar technology, research is turned out to be more sophisticated. Evacuated tube collectors (ET Collectors) are the most eco-friendly and efficient solar water heaters used worldwide. A series of experiments have been performed on ETC Characterization System. The research presents the evaluation of the performance of an ET Collector and characterize the solar water heater at different wind velocity of (2, 3, 4 m/s) and solar radiation between 250 to 750 W/m2 by keeping temperature of inlet water as constant. Examining the system performance at different temperature of inlet water of (29 °C, 40 °C, 50 °C). Net heat loss through evacuated tubes (ETs), heat loss coefficient through ETs, & the efficiency of an ET Collector has been recorded.
