Earth Kingdom

The Earth Belts

‘Earth Belts’ is a blanket term for all bodies lying between 0.8AU and 10AU, inhabited by the Earth Kingdom’s diverse and far-spread citizens. There is no ‘average’ planet within the domain; while some citizens live on one of the two Earth-like planets, many others live on airless asteroids or isolated comets, or float freely through the rings of gas giants. The diverse scope of living conditions and the cultural reliance on mining and farming have cultivated a hardy, persistent Earthbending nature in its native people; a control over the primitive physical building materials of the universe. Earthbenders generally favor the construction of cities and fortresses and vast infrastructure over exploration and conquest, and they make only limited use of spacecraft. When space travel is necessary, it is accomplished using nuclear thermal rockets, and enormous enduring constructions such as mass drivers [electromagnetic cannons to launch craft into space], space elevators [cables reaching from the surface to orbit that vehicles can climb], and skyhooks [fancy spinning space elevators]. Electrical power in the Earth kingdom comes largely from nuclear fission, a safe and long-lasting source most easily augmented by refined Earthbending. Their metal manufacturing relies primarily on extrusion and forging, to make high volumes of heavy, strong steel.

Omashu Station

[Gravity: 0.5G, Pressure: 1.0ATM, Orbit: 4.6AU, Replaces Omashu City]

Omashu Station was built near the center of a massive asteroid in the rings around the gas giant Kolau, such that it is only accessible by descending through a narrow canyon tunnel. The station is a triumph in Earthbending engineering, and the largest single mechanical device to have ever been made. It is a kilometer-wide cylinder of rock, attached to its parent asteroid by a pair of enormous stone bearing; it rotates to produce artificial gravity, and is filled with breathable atmosphere. A dedicated staff of powerful Earthbenders attend to the station night and day, keeping it spinning, operating its airlocks, sealing up leaks in the shell, operating a complex system of transport chutes, and destroying unworthy cabbages. Omashu station is a hub of commerce, trade, and manufacturing throughout the Earth Belts, and its location deep within an asteroid makes it highly defensible against enemy attacks.

♫ Secret Tunnel♫

[Gravity: 0G, Pressure: 0ATM, Orbit: 4.6AU, Replaces identical Secret Tunnel]

An ancient labyrinth carved through the asteroid near Omashu by a pair of starcrossed lovers from rival mining colonies, who learned earthbending techniques from the great mole worms, and used the tunnels to meet in secret. The two warring colonies were forced into peace in this era, and Omashu station was carved nearby as a tribute to the end of the conflict. The labyrinth itself is exceptionally dangerous for non-Earthbenders and stoners to navigate, and has fallen from disuse to legend over the centuries. [I didn’t draw this one since it looks exactly the same as the show.]

Si Wong

[Gravity: 0.6G, Pressure: 1.3ATM, Orbit: 0.9AU, Replaces Si Wong desert]

An arid desert planet just inside the habitable zone. Its thick atmosphere and powerful winds have blasted the world’s tropic regions into an inhospitable sea of sand. The only water exists deep underground or on the poles, in the form of sparce ice gysers. The planet’s centralized location in the system and its uninhabitable nature have made it an ideal and safe dumping ground for old ships. This has attracted a small population of nomadic scavengers and traders, who travel the desert on Ekranoplans, picking apart the old ships for parts and selling them at ports near the poles. [Ekranoplans are ground-effect vehicles somewhere between planes and boats that float a few feet above the ground on a cushion of air; they can carry more cargo than planes and move almost as fast, but require very flat surfaces to travel over, and require extra thrust from a sandbender to take off.] Legend has it that the ancient spirit Wan Shi Tong built a vast computerized library somewhere on the surface of Si Wong, though its location has since been lost among the myriad wreckage and blowing sand.

The Fortress World of Ba Sing Se

[Gravity: 0.97G, Pressure: 0.2ATM, Orbit: 3.6AU, Replaces Ba Sing Se]

A cold and barren Mars-like planet, just outside the habitable zone. The thin, unbreathable air and high radiation on the surface of Ba Sing Se encouraged its early settlers to build their habitats underground. As the centuries wore on, they kept venturing and building further and further down, until an area hundreds of kilometers in diameter had been all-but hollowed out, and built into a thriving metropolis, kept running by plentiful nuclear fission power, and illuminated by greenish uranium glass. Ba Sing Se is the manufacturing hub for most complex machinery and spacecraft in the system, and their export helps compensate for the economic difficulty of underground farming and dense population. Several kilometers of stone crust protect the city from above, and railguns have been built into defensive positions in the surrounding mountains and waste pillars. The planet is thus a highly defensible position, and has stood indestructible, unbreachable, unconquered, for over a thousand years. There is no war, and will never be war, within the fortress world of Ba Sing Se.

Spider Lift

[Gravity: 0-0.97G, Pressure: 0ATM, Orbit: 3.6AU, Replaces the Serpent Pass]

A carbon nanotube cable stretching from the surface of Ba Sing Se to geosynchronous orbit. It served as a space elevator during peaceful times to ferry exports away from the planet, but has fallen into disuse and ill-repair during the hundred-year war; the old elevators hang broken and lifeless at various points along its length, and the cable has been dangerously frayed. Nevertheless, the brave and the desperate have been known to descend it in secret using small service trolleys. Most avoid the lift entirely, and travel to and from the planet's surface aboard shuttles. They call it Spider Lift because the long, thin cable resembles a spider web. No other reason.

Kyoshi Comet

[Gravity: 0.01G, Pressure: 0ATM, Orbit: 0.8-10.2AU, Replaces Kyoshi Island]

A 3km-wide mountain shattered clear of a frozen Earth Kingdom moon and hurled into space by Avatar Kyoshi, which she did during the conquest of Chin the Conqueror to stop his advance and to ensure the safety of her people. It was on this comet that she settled, and began training a group of elite women warriors to follow in her ways. Lady Kyoshi's great size, long demanding life, and low-gravity upbringing gave her weak knees, which necessitated her use of powered prosthetics to stay mobile later in life. Similar exoskeletons were later integrated into her follower's tactics and battle dress, which allowed them to carry heavier armor, and deploy on high-gravity worlds, while focusing their training toward technique instead of strength. Birthplace of Rabies Man.

Chin Crater

[Gravity: 0.42G, Pressure: 0.4ATM, Orbit: 4.6AU, Replaces identical Chin Village]

The chasm Kyoshi left behind when she did her ridiculous thing from earlier. The lifting of the comet caused a powerful air vacuum to form in the gap, which sucked Chin himself to his doom. His army disbanded thereafter, though some stayed and erected a settlement on the crater rim to honor him, and they hold an annual parade day to deride the name of the Avatar. [I didn’t draw it because this is the worst town in the system.]

Games Proposal - Week 26A - I have started working more on my Escape Room. I have come up with some level plans that I will be uploading tomorrow. I have come up with a setting and a premise for the way my level works. You are trapped aboard an immense ship and are looking for means to escape. You find yourself in a small room with a computer terminal and a special machine that can drain water. This room was generally used as a gym for the crew to spend free time in. It was multi purpose and could function as a swimming pool. The Drainage System is broken and you must find certain things that will repair. Dedicating this project to one of my favourite all time shows ‘The Crystal Maze’. My level is broken down into four challenges that test your physical strength, mental strength, skill and also mystery. In a nutshell - Physical is the swimming aspect. Mystery you must interact with switches based on clues. Skill you must carry water across a small ledge to special scales and mental you must answer riddles. Beating these challenges will unlock certain items that will help you fix and activate the drainage machine. Once the water is drained you can get out. All of the challenges reprisent water - as activating the switches based on three positions will alter heigh of watery gysers. I have devised plenty of things that will be seen more when I upload my written work. Tomorrow I shall started to build the level.

FAQs related to Solar Water Heater System in India

Here is the list of some of the frequently asked questions related to Solar Water Heater.

1. What is a solar water heater?

Available with different names in the market viz. Solar Water Heater, Solar water heating systems, Domestic solar water heaters, Solar Gyser, etc., it is the most effective way to generate hot water with the minimum impact on the environment. By collecting solar energy, solar water heater gives hot water as output. Utilization of freely available sunshine makes it cost-effective, pollutionless, eco-friendly and sustainable.

2. What are the major components of the solar water heater?

Basically, Solar Water Heater System consists of three major components: Heat Collector, Storage tank and connecting Pipes. Earlier models couldn’t work at freezing temperature, very hot climate or cloudy day but nowadays, technology up-gradation has made it possible to work effectively even at unfavorable climatic conditions.

3. What are the types of solar heat collectors used in a solar water heater?

As the name suggests, heat collectors are the component that collects heat from the sunshine. These are a vital component in any solar heating system. Basically, there is three types of solar collectors that are predominantly used for residential purposes.

Flate Plate Collector

Evacuated tube Collector

Integral Collector-Storage System

4. What are Flat Plate, Solar heat collectors?

These are the most fundamental type of solar collector that has been used since the beginning. The basic principle of this collectors is: the sun heats a dark flat surface which collects the maximum possible heat and then transfers it to the water. The main components of Flat plat collector are as follow:

Black surface - It absorbs the heat from incident solar radiation.

Glazing cover – It is a transparent layer that transmits radiation to the absorber, and also protects the heat loss by radiation or convection.

Circulating Tubes: These tubes contain the heating fluid to transfer heat from the collector for meeting the end purpose.

Support Structure

Insulation cover

Advantage:

Flat Plate collectors are simple and cheap.

Easy to manufacture, install and operate.

Less maintenance

Permanently fixed.

5. What is the integral collector-storage system?

In this collector and storage are encased in a single unit. It contains single or multiple black painted tanks or collectors. Coldwater flows through the preheated collector tubes or tanks and gets heated. This is more utilizable in mid-freeze climatic regions. Mostly used for household applications.

6. What are evacuated tube collectors?

It contains parallel rows of transparent glass tubes. Each tube has an outer glass tube to receive maximum solar radiation and an inner metal tube which acts as a heat absorber attached to the fin. The fin is duly coated to restrict the heat loss and transfer maximum possible heat to the running fluid or water. These types of collectors are most frequently used across the globe. Also, it is the most used solar water heater in India both for residential and commercial purposes.

7. What are the things to remember while deciding the type of solar water heater to use?

Going solar is now a trend in India. If you are looking for purchasing a solar water heater, don’t follow the crowd. Instead you should focus on your own homework. Before selecting a solar water heater for your home or commercial purpose, you should consider the following things:

1. Determine the correct cost and energy efficiency of the solar water heating system.

2. Work on evaluating the solar heating potential of your site.

3. Find out the correct system size

4. Consider the rebates, discounts or available subsidy.

8. How to determine the efficiency of the solar water heating system?

For determining the efficiency of the solar water heater, there are two indices used worldwide, also relevant in India:

· Solar Energy Factor

· Solar Fraction

· Solar Energy Factor: Solar Energy Factor is a mathematic formula to determine the efficiency of the system. It is the result of the division of energy obtained from the solar water heater system by the energy obtained by the electrical, gas or other conventional water heater. The higher the number, the more will be the efficiency of the system. Normally, it ranges from 1 to 11. If it is 1, it means your solar water heater is performing equivalent to your previously used conventional one while 11 means your solar water heater is 11 times more efficient than the conventional one.

· Solar Fraction: If you are using a conventional water heater as a backup, solar fraction gives up the value of the solar water heater in your overall obtained heat from the combined system. It ranges from 0 to 1. Normally, it is around 0.5 to 0.8. e.g. 0.5 SF means 50% of your heating demand is fulfilled by the sun.

While selecting a solar water heater, one must choose a higher efficient one. If you are choosing a combined assembly, put the SF above than 50%.

Also, the sole consideration of efficiency is not advisable. You must consider the overall cost of the system as well.

Calculation of annual operational cost:

Before making the final decision on the type of solar water heating system, you must consider the annual operational cost of the available options and compare them to have a detailed overview. It will help you in the evaluation of annual savings and also determine the payback period. While considering the efficiency, always opt for a lower operational period to minimize the payback period.

For calculating the annual operational cost, follow these steps:

Step 1: Find out your requirements and size of the system.

Step 2: The Solar Energy Factor of the System

Step 3: Cost of the conventional system (Gas or electric)

Step 4: Perform the respective calculations for cost-saving.

1. If the conventional system is Gas based: Determine the unit fuel cost and put them in the formula:

365 × 0.4105 ÷ SEF × Fuel Cost (therm) = estimated annual operating cost saving

Unit fuel cost in therm. ( 1 therm = 1,00,000 BTU), (BTU = British Thermal Unit)

2. If the conventional system is electric geyser: Use this formula:

365 × 12.03 kWh/day ÷ SEF × Electricity Cost (kWh)= estimated annual operating cost saving

This formula is based on taking 250 liter/day as the water requirement.

Cost comparison and payback period:

After calculating the overall operational cost of the available options, compare the cost with the conventional water heater or geyser and determine the overall payback period. You can use the following table for easier comparison.

Model

Installation Cost

SEF

Annual Operational Cost

Model A

Model B (more efficient)

Additional Cost of Model B

=Price of B- Price of A

Additional Annual Cost Saving (Model B)

=Operational Cost B- Operational cost A

Payback Period (Model B)

=Additional Cost of B/Cost B’s Saving per year

Also, consider the maintenance cost for a more detailed approach. Contact us for more detailed analyses.

9. How to improve the efficiency of the solar water heater?

There are various energy saving and efficiency improvement tips to enhance the performance of your installed and duly maintained solar water heater system. Browse for the latest energy-saving strategies and devices which are more cost-effective to install with the heater.

Always monitor the working efficiency of the system. Make a record of it and analyze it in your free time. If it is not working satisfactorily, call your contractor and ask for any maintenance or repair, if required.

Solar technology is not new but evolving. Every day, new innovations are entering in the market. Stay updated for any new add-ons for improving the energy efficiency of your system.

10. What are the sizes of the solar water heater available in the market?

Presently, there are many brands and solar contractor in the Indian market that provides various size of the solar water heater. The size of the solar water heater depends on the hot water requirement and other factors that we have discussed previously. The size of the solar water heater available in market starts from 100 litre per day.

The system size solely depends on the type of solar water heater system you have opted and the total requirement of the hot water. Here are the three types of solar water heating system. Follow the steps for sizing the system:

· Calculate the overall hot water demand.

· Select the type of system.

· Find out the cumulative sum of area requirements of all the components.

Let’s have a look at the sizing of the solar water system on the basis of their type:

Sizing the tankless or direct system: Tankless system or direct system means that the hot water is directly transferred to the end-user without hauling at storage tank. For sizing such system, follow the steps:

· Find out the flow rate of the hot water application.

For finding this, determine the flow rate at individual outlet points. For example, required flow rate at the taps, showers or another utility point. Find out their algebraic sum.

· Find out the temperature rise

The temperature rise is the difference of the inlet cold water temperature and required hot water

On the basis of these two factors, the solar water heater provider will suggest a suitable size for you.

Sizing solar water heater system: In this, the overall collector area and storage capacity is calculated to determine the overall size of the system. After calculating the water requirement, follow these steps:

· Collector Area: For the first two family members, normally a collector area of 20 to 25 square feet is suggested. For every additional member, collector area of approximately 8 to 10 square feet is added to the previous one. It again depends on location and its solar resources.

· Storage Volume: A storage volume of 150litre is recommended for a small family. It increases with an increase in number of members of family. A medium storage tank of 250 liters is enough for 5 to 7 members.

Sizing storage or heat pump type solar water heater: If you are thinking of an active solar water heater, calculate the area requirement of heat pumps and other plumbing components.

The type of system, water requirement, storage requirement, and peak demand collectively gives the size of the system you needed.

12. How much does it cost to install a solar water heater?

The cost of the system depends on various factors. Some of the factors are as follow:

· Type of the system

· Size of the system]

· System Brand name

· Associated warranty and guarantee

· Free Maintenance period

· The effective life span of the system

· The efficiency of the system

· Assured performance of the system

· Add-Ons with system

· Monitoring units or other additional equipment with the system.

The approximate cost of the system has been enlisted in the following table. It may vary as per the trend and market demand.

Overall Capacity of the system (liters per day)

Cost of evacuated tube collector system (in Rs)

Cost of Flate Plate Collector system (in Rs)

The above cost includes the following:

· Cost of collectors

· Insulated hot water storage tank

· Piping and essential plumbing component

· Electrical Backup

· Installation cost.

The additional cost may be of plumbing to the utility point, additional heat exchangers, pumps (If it is active system), etc. If you are located in any isolated locations or hilly terrain, the cost can further increase. Also, the cost varies from manufacturer to manufacturer, contractor to contractor and location to location.

13. Which solar water heater is best?

All are good, depends what you require and need.

· Evacuated tube collector systems are fragile in nature as they contain glass. Thus require smooth handling and care. These systems work satisfactorily in the colder regions even at sub-zero temperatures. If there is much salt content in the water, it gets deposited inside the tube. Therefore, tubes are required to cleansed properly after specific time period.

· Flate Plate Collector system has a longer effective life as they are metallic, but they are expensive than the evacuated tube collector system. If there is much salt content in water, heat exchanger mechanism is required to avoid salt deposition which further adds to the cost of the system.

· Passive solar water heater systems are preferable for small domestic or residential purposes while for larger commercial practices, an active system i.e. systems with additional pump is required.

14. How effective are solar water heaters?

The effectiveness and efficiency of solar water can be calculated from SEF (Solar Energy Factor) where SEF is Solar Energy Factor is a mathematic formula to determine the efficiency of the system. It is the result of the division of energy obtained from the solar water heater system by the energy obtained by the electrical, gas or other conventional water heater. The higher the number more will be the efficiency of the system. Normally, it ranges from 1 to 11. If it is 1, it means your solar water heater is performing equivalent to your previously used conventional one while 11 means your solar water heater is 11 times more efficient than the conventional one.

On the basis of types of solar water heating system and its operation, you can calculate is effectiveness.

15. Do solar hot water systems save money?

Of course, the solar hot water system saves money.

If you compare the operational cost of a conventional heater and solar water heater, it is much lesser for solar water heater. Though the one-time investment cost of solar water heater is higher than the conventional heater, you are saving a lot in the longer run. If you break down the cost with respect to the overall operational period, solar water heater is a worthy investment.

Look at the following table to have an approximate idea of overall savings

So, you are saving a lot while opting solar water heater.

16. What size solar hot water do I need?

The size of solar water you will need directly depends on your overall hot water demand. More the consumption of hot water more will be the required size. Also, it depends on the type of solar water you choose like if you are opting for a tankless or direct solar water heater, you will require a smaller size. Also, the size criteria vary for integrated storage collector system, flat plate collector system, evacuated tube collector system, etc.

For a small family of 4-5 members, a small 150 LPD solar water heater is sufficient. A medium storage tank of 250 liters is enough for 5 to 7 members.

For the first two family members, normally a collector area of 20 to 25 square feet is suggested. For every additional member, collector area of approximately 8 to 10 square feet is added to the previous one. It again depends on location and its solar resources.

17. What are the major types of solar hot water systems?

In broad categories, solar water heater or solar hot water systems are of two types:

a. Active solar water heating system- (have a pump)

· Direct Circulation System:

· Indirect Circulation System:

b. Passive solar water heating system (doesn’t have pumps)

· Integral collector storage system:

· Thermosyphon system:

18. Does solar water heater need electricity?

No, if you are using solar water heater solely, it doesn’t require any electricity at all. In case, you are opting for an additional electric geyser as a backup, electricity will be required.

So the case is, it solely depends on you. Solar water heater doesn’t need electricity for running. Electricity is only required if you need backup.

19. Does solar water heater work in winter?

Winter does have sunlight. If there is sunlight, solar water heater works. Don’t consider the warmth of the environment, sun rays consist a wide spectrum of radiations – diffused radiations, visible radiations, infrared, ultraviolet, etc. The system performs well in winters as well. But if the temperature goes below the freezing point for a longer period, you need to install or arrange for additional heating fluid or heating exchangers to avoid freezing of water.

In case, temperature rarely goes below the freezing point, no additional arrangements are required except some additional plumbing fixtures.

20. Are solar water heaters worth the investment?

Look at the following table to have an approximate idea of overall savings

So, you are saving a lot while opting solar water heater.

You are not only saving the electricity cost, but also the carbon footprint, pollution, and your environment.

21. How long do solar water heaters last?

Normally, solar water heaters last for 10 years (Warranty period) without any serious maintenance or repair. If you maintain it wisely, it may last for 25 years with some occasional repair and maintenance. Duly follow the maintenance guidelines for a longer life cycle.

22. Do solar water heaters work on cloudy days?

Yes, If there is sunlight, solar water heater works. Don’t consider the warmth of the environment and the visible spectrum of sunlight. Clouds can only restrict visibility of the sun, not the presence of sunlight. The sun rays consist a wide spectrum of radiations – diffused radiations, visible radiations, infrared, ultraviolet, etc. The system performs well in winters as well.

There are storage tanks as well which are duly insulated to inhibits the heat loss. You can also opt for electric heater or geyser as a backup in case, solar water heater is not working satisfactorily during cloudy or shady days. Normally, it is not required, until or unless you are in amazon rain forest. Oh, a major part of that has burnt off. Now, it works there also.

23. How do I know if my solar hot water is working?

Simple is that, If you are getting hot water, your solar hot water or heater is working. Jokes apart, in most of the sophisticated systems, there are temperature indicators that tell the temperature of the stored and heated water. So, check it. Also you can opt for more advanced monitoring gadgets and devices that will tell you about the complete health of your solar water heater.

In case, your solar water heater is not working, call your contractor or service provider for a health checkup.

24. Is solar hot water cheaper than gas?

Of course, it is cheaper alternative of gas. Sunshine is free of cost so there are no fuel charges of solar water heaters. Also you are prevented from the price hike or market up-downs. Though the one-time investment cost of solar water heater can be high, the overall operational cost is much cheaper. Approximately, it is 5 times cheaper than gas-based water heater comparing the installation and overall operational period applicable throughout the life cycle of the system.

25. What is LPD in a solar water heater?

The abbreviation LPD means Litres per day. It is used to measure your daily consumption or in other words the daily requirements. It is obtained by dividing the overall water consumption or requirement throughout a certain period by the number of days in that certain period.

26. What are the advantages and disadvantages of solar water heater?

Each type of solar water heater has its own advantages and disadvantages. Here are some:

Advantages of Direct Circulation System

· Simple and Reliable: The direct circulation system is simple and more reliable. The concept is simple, less maintenance, no additional fluid, and lesser energy loss make it more reliable.

· Affordable: It requires lesser plumbing components, moving parts, and labor which makes it less expensive than the indirect one.

Disadvantage of direct circulation system

· Not efficient in very cold weather: In conditions of severe cold, when the temperature goes in negative, plain water gets freeze and can even burst the plumbing components. Thus, this type of system is not applicable at all locations, at all temperatures.

· Not efficient for multiple heating needs: If you are looking for heating your two pools of water from the same system, it is not efficient. Multiple purposes mean multiple heaters.

Advantage of the indirect circulation system

· More efficient in a cold climate: As in this type of system either circulating fluid is used as a solar collector or it is mixed with water which further lowers the freezing point makes this system more efficient for such weather conditions.

· Suitable for multiple purposes: Hear can be exchanged to multiple arrays of water make this system suitable for multiple purposes.

Disadvantages of the indirect circulation system

· Less Efficient: Because of the involvement of the heat exchange phenomenon, a great amount of heat is lost, make this system less efficient than another type.

· Expensive: More plumbing components, additional fluid, and the setup take along additional cost which makes the entire system expensive.

Advantages of the integral collector storage system

· Simple mechanism, easy installation, and operation: Being a passive system, this type of solar heater doesn’t require additional pumps or electronic control. Lesser components make the overall cost cheaper. Moreover, less maintenance is required.

· Cheaper alternative: It is the cheapest among the other types of solar water heater and most preferable for any DIY projects where homeowners can install their own built solar water heater with minimum cost.

Disadvantages of the integral collector storage system

· Low performance and efficiency: performance and efficiency are very low. You can’t simply rely on such kinds of heaters. Additional backup is required.

· More weight: Due to the presence of heavy collector tube, the weight of this type of heater is cumulative sum of water, collector tube, storage tank and some add Ons. So, mostly they are mounted on ground. For roof mounting, additional supporting structure is required.

· Not workable at the freezing point: This type of heaters doesn’t work satisfactorily at freezing point or on a cloudy day. However, recent design innovations have made it possible in new versions of ICS system.

· More Heat loss: The collector also acts as a water storage unit in this type of system. For avoiding more heat loss, double or triple glazing layers have been provided on the tubes which further add ons to the weight of the system. Still, there is considerable energy loss in this system.

Advantage of Thermosyphon system

· Highly reliable: these types of systems are most widely used because of their reliability, good performance, and efficiency.

· Cost-effective: Being a passive system, it requires lesser component than the active one. Thus, it is more cost-effective than active systems.

· Less Maintenance: It involves lesser maintenance and operational cost. Thus, a faster cost breakdown can be achieved.

Disadvantages of Thermosyphon system

· Freezing point operation: Thermosyphon system doesn’t work properly at the freezing point which makes is unapplicable for cold prone regions. For such locations, additional fluid is required to use either to mix with water or as a collector fluid.

· Multipurpose uses: For multipurpose use, separate heaters are required which makes it a costlier alternative for multipurpose applications.

27. What are the maintenance guidelines of a solar water heater?

· Passive systems require lesser maintenance while the active system needs more. If you are opting for the second category, duly discuss the maintenance and operational guidelines with the service provider and ask for the maintenance manual.

· Plumbing and other components require the same maintenance as the conventional system.

· Glazing of the collectors is required to be cleansed in dry climate where rainwater is no option for natural cleansing.

· Regular maintenance is required every 3-5 years by certified service providers. If your system has electric components, typically in 10 years, you will need to replace the parts.

Also, check the following:

· For ETC, glass tubes can break. Therefore, you may have to provide occasional replacement

· Remove the scaling or deposits regularly. If there is much hardness in the water, acid can be used to clean the collector.

· If your outer system is painted, you may have to re-paint it every 2-3 years to prevent the system from corrosion.

· Occasional leakages or other issues need to be repaired periodically by local plumber or service providers.

28. How to hire a solar water heater contractor or service provider?

While hiring the contractor, you must screen him properly. Don’t rely on the information provided by him or their company only. Believe, you only save yourself from a bad deal and are solely responsible for any bad experiences. Keep in mind to ask the following questions to the contractor or service provider before hiring.
