Description

Solar water heater heat pipe in AUCKLAT solar collector have a boiling point of only *5 centigrade. so when the heat pipe is heated above *5 centigrade the water vaporizes. this vapour rapidly rises to the top of the heat pipe transferring heat. as the heat is lost at the condenser(top), the vapour condenses to form a liquid (water) and returns to the bottom of the heat pipe again repeating the process. Each heat pipe is tested for heat transfer performance and exposed to **0 centigrade temperatures prior to being approved for use. for this reason the copper heat pipe are relatively soft. given this strict quality control and high copper purity, the life expectancy of the heat pipe is even longer than that of the solar tube.
