Abstract
There are different conversions of Solar Energy into other useful types of energy. This research study concentrates on the solar-thermal conversion. The manufactured glazed-flat plate collector prototype made from used parts such as radiator of fridge, wood, plastic bottles, glass, pipes and metal sheet. Therefore, the economic aspect took into consideration in this study. The manufactured prototype serves all hot water domestic’ needs. The maximum hot water temperature obtained is 73.6°C. The average percent efficiency for the solar prototype obtained is 57.62%. The angle of inclination used is 43.4 degree. The approximate cost of solar glazed flat plate collector prototype is approximately 70 US $.
