How It Works




The operation of the AP solar collector is very simple.
Solar Absorption: Solar radiation is absorbed by the solar tubes and converted into heat.
Solar Heat Transfer: Heat pipes conduct the heat from within the solar tube up to the header pipe.
Solar Energy Storage: Water is ciruclated through the header, via intermittent pump cycling. Each time the water circulates through the header the temperatures is raised by 5-10oC / 9-18oF. Throughout the day, the water in the storage tank is gradually heated.
