Abstract

Solar collector has been made with the help of follow-up mechanism to ensure the efficient use of solar energy. By this mechanism more solar radiaton has been absorved. In this study there has been any significant difference between 12:00 and 14:30 hours in the day. But in the morning and in the afternoon it is defined that the outlet temperature of the solar collector with the mechanism is 5-12oC higher than the stable collector.
