Abstract

This research investigates solar water heater technologies in depth to find environmentally friendly methods of  heating water for the home. The research analyses the efficacy, economic viability, and environmental effect of many collector technologies via the use of qualitative analysis, practical design, and the review of secondary data. A detailed analysis of the differences between evacuated tube and flat-plate collectors reveals the advantages of each type in certain environments. The culmination of this study is a prototype of a cutting-edge evacuated-tube solar water heater that aims to maximize the use of solar energy. Integrating a 58/1800-sized vacuum tube into a thoughtfully crafted water tank is a perfect example of how far in-depth research and creative thinking can take solar water heating systems. Finally, this investigation provides not only a more thorough comprehension of solar water heater technologies, but also a practical answer that exemplifies the revolutionary potential of research-led design in resolving energy efficiency issues.
