Talk:Solar Water Heater - Capacity 100L

Development and documentation - Technical solutions -- Inddigital (talk) 19:31, 23 January 2023 (CET)

• Parallel Tubes: preferable system
• Zigzag tubes: Proven system in commercial equipment but requires experience and additional equipment for bending
• Parallel Plates: Requires the fluid to develop enough pressure to deform the metal plates
• Copper: more expensive
• PVC: less heat transfer at the beginning, but a good working regime is reached in a short time
• Steel and galvanized iron in contact with water: more expensive than PVC piping
• A single circuit (mixed flow heat exchanger): Preferable, the utilization network can work by gravity
• Two circuits (coil heat exchanger): Requires pressurizing the network

The perforations are missing in the insulating walls for the pipes to pass through, although it is not a critical detail, this can be quickly deduced during manufacturing

Part number 4.00 -- Xtech2020_review (talk) 23:52, 12 January 2023 (CEST)

It is recommended to evaluate if it is necessary to place flexible sections in the pipes, to withstand thermal expansion

Part number 1.05 -- Xtech2020_review (talk) 23:54, 12 January 2023 (CEST)

In this sheet, the capture of solar energy can be optimized, simply with a coating of black paint, this detail is not observed in the project

Part number 3.05 -- Xtech2020_review (talk) 23:56, 12 January 2023 (CEST)

Here you can include a relief valve so that it only works to release the excess pressure and this access is not all the time losing heat from the tank

Part number 3.02 -- Xtech2020_review (talk) 23:58, 12 January 2023 (CEST)

Please include a commercial reference

Part number 2.15 -- Xtech2020_review (talk) 00:00, 13 January 2023 (CEST)

Indicate the means of joining these plates to the lid sheet, ...riveting?

Part number 1.00 -- Xtech2020_review (talk) 00:02, 13 January 2023 (CEST)

The configuration of the tubes in the manifold makes it difficult for them to be threaded, it is recommended to use accessories to glue

Part number 1.00 -- Xtech2020_review (talk) 00:02, 13 January 2023 (CEST)

It is recommended to include a rubber or silicone in the contact of the glass with the metal, this can only be indicated
