Abstract
A flat-plate collector, if operated at low temperature by using working fluid refrigerant, is known as a “solar-cooling device.” The concepts of vapor absorption and compression (refrigeration) are used. This device is used for household refrigerators and air conditioning, etc. Solar collectors are the main part that heats the working fluid.
