Flat-plate collectors are the most common and widely used type of solar thermal collectors. They consist of a flat, insulated box with a dark absorber plate covered by a transparent glass or plastic cover. The sunlight passes through the transparent cover and is absorbed by the plate, which heats up and transfers the heat to a fluid flowing through tubes or … - Download [PDF]
