Design and Analysis of a Solar-Powered Water Heating System

Water heaters consume a large amount of electricity for heating water. Traditional heaters require heating coils to heat up water using a minimum of 2000 Watts for the process. Well, when we use solar energy for water heating it requires around 30 to 50 Watts of power thus saving more a lot of energy. We here developed a more efficient solar water heater to heat up water at a faster rate using efficient coiling along with heat trapping and reflecting mirrors. The water heater can more efficiently heat up water at a faster pace than traditional solar water heaters. The system makes use of steel pipes coiled together for passing water through them. The pipes are heated by solar rays directly falling on them. We additionally use an aluminium plate behind the pipes to absorb the rays passing through in between pipes. Over this we use 2 additional reflective sheets to gather and reflect additional solar rays over the pipes. This system heats up the pipes thus heating up the water passing
