The basic principals behind modern solar thermal systemsThe basic principle of solar thermal
heating is to utilize the sun’s energy and convert it into heat which is then transferred into
your home or business heating system in the form of hot water and space heating.The main
source of heat generation is through roof mounted solar panels which are used in conjunction
with a boiler, collector or immersion heater. The solar collector will use the sun's rays to heat
a transfer fluid which is usually a mixture of water and glycol (antifreeze) which prevents the
water from freezing. The heated water from the collectors is pumped to a heat exchanger
which would be inside the water tank in your home. The heat from the exchanger will then
heat the water inside the tank. After the liquid releases its heat, the water will flow back to
the collectors for reheating. A controller will ensure that the fluid will circulate to the collector
when there is sufficient heat available.

Solar thermal system components. The collector is the main component of a solar thermal
system and would in most cases be installed on the roof of the property. The collector
contains specially coated reinforced glass pipes to capture the radiation emitted from the sun,
which can then be transferred into heat. The pipes themselves will be embedded in an
insulated container to prevent heat energy being lost. The heat transfer fluid in the pipes will
include eco-friendly antifreeze and will circulate through the collector and hot water tank. In
terms of the hot water tanks, there are two kinds that would be in operation. The first is used
for heating drinking water and would normally consist of a steel tank filled with drinking
water and a heat exchanger. The second would be a combination tank which would supply
both drinking water and hot water to the heating system. The tank that incorporates the duel
system would in fact have two smaller tanks inside to keep the water separated for the
different tasks. There would also be two heat exchangers which would connect to the
collectors and the boiler. The solar water heating system would be connected to the lower
exchanger and the boiler to the above exchanger.The whole system can be operated from a
solar thermal controller which can be automated. When the temperature at the collectors
rises to a specific temperature above the temperature in the storage tank, the controller will
automatically switch on the pump and the transfer fluid heated in the collector will be sent to
the hot water tank. A typical collector storage tank can hold up to 30 gallons per person.
