FLAT PLATE SOLAR COLLECTOR USING CONCENTRATING LENS ARRAY AND INSERT COILS

Present invention provides the arrangement of solar concentration along with tracking system in flat plate collector can provide better efficiency. This system can provide hot water which is required in early morning hours. The system is equipped with the solar concentrating lens array fitted at the top cover transparent glass, insert coils, parabolic reflectors and a solar tracking system. The system is compact and can be installed in a small space where adequate sun light is available. The aim of this system is to provide warm water early in the morning hours. This will save the valuable electrical energy and can be promising alternative to electric water geezers. Further the system can be used for distillation process i.e. for ethanol distillation where temperature range is required up to 85°C. Following invention is described in detail with the help of Figure 1 of sheet 1 shows Two dimensional view of concentrating flat plate collector with dimensional details (All dimensions in mm and inch), Figure 2 of sheet 2 shows Dimensional details of Collector body structure, Figure 3 of sheet 3 shows Dimensional details of runner riser pipe structure with insert copper coils mesh.
