Abstract: The aim of this study is
to develop the new model that can improve the efficiency
of solar water heater. The research is conducted using
the experimental method to improve the performance of
double-wave solar water heater. It uses single-layer
plate, double-layer plates and triple-layer plates of
glass cover solar water heater. We investigate also some
variations of intake flow rate that can improve the
efficiency of model. The results are: 1) the best
efficiency of the solar water heater uses triple-layer
plates glass cover, if it is compared to the double
layer plates and single layer plate of glass cover; 2)
the efficiency value of solar water heaters increases
linearly to the intake water flow rate. Generaly, the
performance of double-wave absorber solar water heater
using triple-layer plates of glass cover is better than
double or single layer plates of glass cover.
