Storage cylinders should be designed to meet household hot water needs, maximise the amount of water heated by solar radiation, and protect safety.
Aggressive Hydraulics has the knowledge and expertise to design, engineer & manufacture a wide array of custom renewable energy related (wind, solar & hydropower) hydraulic cylinders.
The storage cylinder should be larger than for a single energy source cylinder such as gas or electric, so that when there is good solar gain, the cylinder can store the heat that is available. The boosting element in a solar water heating cylinder needs to be installed and configured to:
The solar thermal circuit should always be plumbed into the bottom coil of the twin coil cylinder. Heat rises, and the draw-off point for the water to the taps is at the top. This means your solar system is capable of heating the whole volume of water stored in the cylinder.
By far the most common way of incorporating a solar system into your home is with the use of a twin coil hot water store. Such is the speed at which solar thermal has taken off in recent years, that the vast majority of cylinder manufacturers now have different sized solar cylinders in their range to suit all applications.
What you do have to remember, is that in Winter on very overcast days when there is little or no solar gain available, only the volume of water from the boiler coil to the top of the cylinder will be heated For this reason, it is recommended that solar cylinders are sized correctly. They should be one and a half to twice the size you need.
Storage cylinders should be designed to meet household hot water needs, maximise the amount of water heated by solar radiation, and protect safety. On this page: Solar water heating cylinders must: have sufficient capacity to meet both peak loads and overall daily demand without requiring excessive use of a booster heating system.
The storage cylinder may be on the roof just above the solar panels or separate, e.g. inside the roof space or fixed to the exterior of the building. The weight of the water must be considered when sizing framing for roof-mounted or ceiling space cylinders, and the cylinder must have earthquake restraints.
