Heat Pipe Solar Collector
Descriptions of Heat Pipe Solar Collector
1. Evacuated tube collector, a part of solar hot water heater, is usually mounted on a roof and has a row of glass tubes.
2. A copper heat pipe, which is hollow with the space inside evacuated, is installed within the tube.
3. The pipe can transmit heat to its tip which is plugged into the collector`s heat transfer manifold. Then heat is transferred from the copper heat pipe to the water when water runs through the manifold.
Features of Heat Pipe Solar Collector
1. The heat pipe can heat water rapidly.
2. There is no water in the vacuum tube, so the tube will not break in the winter.
3. With a pleasing appearance, this evacuated tube collector is compatible with the architecture.
4. It can be integrated with existing pipeline.
5. The solar collector, unsuitable for hard water, will be affected by the local water quality.
6. It still can in the event of occasional tube breakages.
