Evacuated tube is the latest advancement in solar hot water system. The concept and idea is however the same with a traditional solar hot water, but the secret lies in the collector itself. Evacuated tubes are proven to be more effective, reliable and greater value for money.
A traditional solar hot water collects heat from the sun at a certain angle only because of its flat design, that borders was eliminated by the innovative evacuated tubes. As the word implies it is a rounded tube which can collect heat from almost all angles possible making it more effective and reliable for longer hours and even in cloudy days.
the Anatomy of EvacuatedTubesEach tube of an evacuated tube is fitted with a heating plate of its own for better absorption and minimizes loss of energy during transport if the entire system has only one heating plate. The tube is made up of two highly durable borosilicate glass.
The outer layer prevents reflection and has easy permeability characteristics allowing as much energy as possible to pass through. A smaller tube is then fitted inside the larger tube. The name evacuated is due to the created vacuum between the gap of the inner and outer layer. The vacuum acts as an insulator which is one of the reasons why it is very efficient. The vacuum helps transform radiation from the sun to heat energy even in colder days.The vacuum also prevents the tube from getting cold even very cold days so you can still expect hot water whenever the sun is available.
To maintain the vacuum within the tubes, a coating of barium is applied to act as a barrier absorbing gases which are not necessary in the process of producing hot water.
Evacuated tubes are still considered as a hot water boost since it cannot function if the sun is completely blinded by the weather. An auxiliary source of energy might be needed. However if compared to other systems it will be leave a fine mark between them,The system also looks very attractive compared to any other system; the tubes are lined parallel making it complement each other. The system also has a distinct look and everyone can recognize what you are using. And it is already a form of awareness campaign that to go solar.If you are thinking that such technology would come a price. Well it isn’t. It may cause just a little more than a traditional system but the difference is not substantial and the system will be packed with functionality that you’ve always looked for.
