| description | Surging demand for energy and the current energy crisis in the world has forced initiatives to look for alternative and cheaper energy sources and one of them is solar energy. The motivation is to provide a clean pollution free source of energy which is environmentally friendly, renewable and cheaper. A large population around the globe uses open fire for water heating, thus solar water geyser has economic and environmental benefits as well. This study is aimed to explore the possibility of designing and fabricating cheap SWHs, calculating their performance through experimentation and estimating the costs involved, so that cheaper SWHs can be used in developing countries like Pakistan. Once such renewable solutions are available to meet energy demands, it can greatly help lower the consumption of fuels and hence uplifting economy for the betterment. |
