The document discusses different types of solar energy collection and conversion technologies. It describes flat-plate solar collectors that use glass, absorbing plates, and fluid circulation to collect solar radiation and transfer heat. It also discusses solar photovoltaics, which convert sunlight directly into electricity using photovoltaic cells usually arranged in panels. Finally, it briefly introduces solar cookers, which use reflected and absorbed sunlight to reach cooking temperatures without the need for fuels.

absorbing plate
Black metallic sheet that harnesses heat from solar
radiation and transfers it to the coolant fluid.
insulation
Material placed on the back side of the collector to
reduce heat loss.
flow tube
Tube containing a coolant (water, air) that is used to
recover and carry heat to the absorbing plate.

7. frame
Collector’s insulating case that is enclosed in glass.
coolant inlet
Cold coolant flows into the circulation tubes to absorb
the solar energy trapped by the collector.
coolant outlet
The coolant exits the collector at high temperature (up to
about 175°F) and is stored or used immediately.

8. Solar Photovoltaic (PV)
Using solar photovoltaic, sunlight is
converted into electricity.
Solar photovoltaic uses photovoltaic
(PV) cells usually in the form of
panels,
also called solar panels
