Abstract

Solar domestic hot water (DHW) equipment for the singlefamily residence has been available for over a century, but the market has been small and regional, and there has been little continuity in the industry. It is very easy to produce solar DHW. For decades this was done without any understanding of flat plate collector operation, and even today the effects of DHW consumption variability on equipment design or operation are not being considered. Virtually all the equipment still involves crude tank system designs, with primitive and inefficient ways of providing backup heating. Before the end of this decade there will be an enormous demand for solar DHW equipment, because the production peaks of oil (world-wide) and of natural gas (in North America) will become clear to the public (1-3). Neither the solar DHW devices nor the people in the solar energy field are ready for this challenge.
