1. Introduction To Active Heating System
An active solar heating system also traps solar energy, and does something to improve the collection, storage, and distribution of that energy.
A turtle sunning itself on a rock is an active solar heating system: its blood distributes the energy throughout its body, and this also improves the efficiency of the heat transfer into the turtle by moving cool blood near the heated surface of its shell [1].
Figure 1. Active heating system on a house completely [2] .
In this figure ,we can see crosssection of active heating system.
a) The solar collectors
b) The solar storage system
c) Auxiliary source of heat
2. Main Components of Active Heating System
Figure 2. Systematics of active heating system [3] .
In figure 2 , systematic of active heating system is shown.
2. a) The Solar Collectors
The type of collector in figure 3, converts solar radiation into heat energy.
Figure 3. Flat-plate collector [4].
2. b) The Solar Storage System
Solar systems usually use a specially designed and sized, super insulated tank though it may also be an electric tank. They serve as a tank where the water is pre-heated.
In figure 4,you can see easily the storage tank.
2. b) The Solar Storage System
