Thermal Collector Selection
adding solar thermal energy from collected solar radiation the water temperature in the collector must
be greater than 60°C.
the main difference between the two is the volume of the water in the water tanks.

better suited to climate ZONE 3 and areas of climate ZONE 2 that get especially cold nights as having
less water in the collector means the water can heat to 60°C more quickly once the sun rises and solar
radiation begins to be collected. Until the water can be heated to this temperature and the solar thermal
energy can be transferred to the refrigerant, the collector is n
cycle.
The difference in the volume of the water tanks also dictates that the heat tube collector is more suited
to climate ZONE 1 and areas of climate ZONE 2 that don’t experience especially cold nights as having
more water in the collector means there is more transfer of solar thermal energy to the refrigerant. In
addition, this style of collector can heat the water to a higher temperature than a flat panel collector.
