Study on the Experiment of All-Weather Solar Water Heater

Abstract:

All-weather solar water heater, which makes the most use of direct and indirect solar, can provide hot water in all weather. Heating at the day’s highest temperature enhances greatly the energy efficient ratio，Cooling at the day’s lowest temperature enhances greatly refrigeration coefficient to save electric energy. In summer, it is able to supply hot water and relevant cooling, avoiding heat pollution and cooling loss. In winter, it is able to supply hot water and relevant heating. The water cycle system which is adapted to store and supply of heating and cooling, reduces the area of solar collector and links of heat exchanging to reduce cost. All-weather solar water heater with advantages such as high conversion efficiency of solar energy and heat energy, initial cost, operating cost and power saving which are better than traditional solar water heater of the same volume, has a great potential for future application.
