Solar Water Heater with Rotating Reflectors and Light Dependent Resistor (LDR)
Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 8
Abstract
Solar energy is a type of renewable energy and it is expected to play a very important role in the future world. The purpose of this project is to increase the efficiency of solar water heating system by using moving reflectors, which tracks the sun's rotation using light dependent diodes. In today's world solar energy applications are enhanced. Like solar water heating systems.it can be used as an alternative to replace the electrical water heating system. Solar energy helps in reducing the consumption of limited resources, such as petroleum resources. Solar energy is used in many applications like in solar water heater which is used in domestic (provides hot water) as well as in industrial (generates electricity).Heating water by using sun energy is not a new idea. In the past century many countries used black painted water tanks as simple solar water heaters. Solar energy applications have improved greatly in the last 3-4 decades.
