Flat Plate Solar Collectors
Sunlight passes through the glazing and strikes the absorber plate, which heats up, changing solar energy into heat energy. The heat is transferred to liquid passing through pipes attached to the ... generally used only in warm weather or can be drained easily during cold weather.

Solar Homes and Solar Collectors
The vertical glazing of a Trombe wall traps heated air like the solar greenhouse and occupies less space. Thermal mass inside the house is used to store heat and moderate temperature swings, but storage capability and temperature regulation is limited by this simple passive air heating design. Solar collectors also use the greenhouse effect to capture the sun's energy. Both ...
