Résumé

The weather conditions of Nsanke village starting from April till October emphasis the need for judicious utilization of warm water. We designed, constructed and tested a Solar Water Heater based on Thermosyphon principle in Nsanke village using locally available materials. Solar energy is received by two flat-plate collectors of 2 1 .6 8 m each, consisting of absorber plate carrying copper tubes and placed in an insulated casing with a transparent glass cover of 4 mm thickness. The collectors are connected in series and are assume to operate on the same efficiency. The resultant collector is connected to a storage tank, which is an association of two barrel nested all in all and separated with an insulator. The radiation emitted by the absorber plate cannot escape through the glass, thus increasing its temperature. The system's performance evaluation has shown that it can heat water from 23 C  to at least C o 51 at sunny day. The water heated flows into a storage tank through Thermosyphon principle. This Solar Water Heating system which uses Thermosyphon principle and, which is thereby call for simplicity Termosyphon Solar Water Heater (TSWH), finds useful application and acts as a renewable energy resource in Nsanke village and other localities where there is abundant and consistent sunlight.
