Solar Power System Parts And Working Of Solar Water Heater

Solar Power

• Solar power is one of the renewable sources of energies which are used in the daily applications from small scale to large scale.

• The solar is defined to be the utilization of sun power via the panels either glazed or unglazed.

• This solar implementation is virally spreading among all the people because of its flexibility in easy installation in home

Solar Water Heater• The solar water heater is one of the equipments being

employed with the help of the solar and it is being used since many years.

• The solar water heater is of many types and they vary depending upon the need and architecture of the house (http://www.slideshare.net/leeshin12/solar-water-heating-system-types-and-mechanism)

• the below slides shows some of the basic parts used and working process of solar water heater.

Parts Of Solar Powered Systems

• The basic part of the solar water heaters• Solar panels• Inverter• Electric meter• Power grids• Batteries

Solar Panels• The solar panels is the main element to draw the solar

power with ease.

• They should be placed facing the sun. • The solar panels functions following the principle of

photovoltaic effect.

• The solar panels are of many types (http://atsolarenergy.blogspot.in/2016/01/types-of-collectors-in-solar-water.html) and they are available with both glazed types and non glazed type.

Inverter

• Inverter is very essential in converting the direct current to alternating current, as the house cannot bare the direct current level.

• They are placed after the solar panels, as they convert the heat energy into electric energy.

• The direct current not the preferable factor for any of the house hold equipments like television, fridge, etc…

Electric Panels

• The electric panels are used to receive the incoming Ac current from the inverter.

• The solar panels produce limited power on their daily usage, that is taken by the electric panels which is then utilized in the house hold appliances.

• The panels takes only sufficient quantity of the powers, rest goes to the utility meter.

Power Grids

• The power grids are used in the transformer system in transferring the current from the production unit to the city or residential unit.

• Though solar panels are utilized during the day time for triggering the power, the energy stored in the utility grid is used in the night time.

Batteries

• This is one of the supplementary element in the solar UPS in most cases.

• The batteries are used to store the energy when the powers are not utilized for house hold devices, this is then used in the case of power shut down.

• the batteries used to the most are lithium batteries.

Working process

• the sun light is observed by the solar panels and due to the photovoltaic effect, the heat energy heats the cold water passing through the collectors

• the water flowing through the collectors get stored in the storage tank and they are either utilized for future use or supplied to the house via the pump.

• This is the basic process involved in the solar water heating systems.

• It is always essential to maintain the solar water heaters to avoid getting rust and freezing (http://www.slideshare.net/leeshin12/tips-to-inspect-and-maintain-solar-water-heaters)

• proper maintenance will increase the durability of the heaters.

• Glazerindia (http://glazerindia.com) is one of the solar water heater producers In India.

• They provide number of services like domestic solar water heating service, industrial solar water heating service, etc..
