Design and Analysis of thermosyphon Solar Water Heating System. by Kakuru, Stephen

“…In rural areas of Uganda, access to affordable hot water is a persistent challenge with communities often relying on firewood and charcoal for water heating which contributes to deforestation, air pollution, and health hazards hence respiratory diseases like asthma, lung cancer, TB, and allergic disease, climate changes and global warming. This research aimed at the design and analysis of a thermosyphon solar water heater that heats water using solar energy which is healthy, environmentally friendly, cost-effective, easily maintained, and simple since it depends on natural convection and gravity force for water flow. …”
