Abstracts: This project involves with a new creative idea about modification of solar water heater by using zigzag flat plate collector. Solar energy is renewable energy sources and most important energy sources. Renewable energy comes from resources which are continually replenished such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, waves and geothermal heat. About 16% of global final energy consumption comes from renewable resources. Renewable Energy Sources – All natural energy flows that are inexhaustible. For collection of solar energy different type of collector are used like flatplate collector concentrating collector etc. In present days, every industries are trying to improve the performance of flat plate collector,so we will improve the performance of flat plate collector by using zigzag tube in the flat plate collector. We include the modification in this report. which we saw during the project work.
