This research is aimed to study the system performance for a large solar hot water system constructed by connecting a series of small domestic natural circulation systems. There are few studies on this type of large solar hot water system available. The major concern is that when circulation pump is on, there forms a short flow between inlet and outlet of each storage tank of natural circulation solar hot water unit. Therefore, water does not have chance to flow though the collector by thermosyphon and system performance can be lowered down drastically. This thesis presents the numerical simulation study for the control and system operating parameters effects on the system performance to provide important information both for users and system designers.
