Abstract
The article presents the results of the research and analysis of the influence of some major design and operational parameters of thermal solar systems on the conversion efficiency of the solar radiation into heat. For a long-term evaluation, the solar fraction and efficiency criteria were used, as well as the specific annual energy converted by the system. With the help of the financial analysis, in terms of the maximum net present value, the optimal specific storage tank volume was determined in systems with different daily consumption profile and substituted energy electricity.
