    From the very beginning of the 21st century, the world is craving towards technological advancement. Every continent, every country is fighting for their survival through technology to make their future predictable and safe. Eventually, with the up rising demand of energy, the span of reserved petroleum started to reduce. Throughout the world, price of the petroleum products started to rise rapidly. At this stage researchers started to think about an alternative option as the source of energy. Thus the concept of solar energy came. At present Solar energy is termed as one of the most effective and reliable Renewable energy sources (RESs). The rapid evolution of renewable energy sources during the last two decades resulted in the installation of many solar power units. The production of electricity from renewable energy technologies is mounting much faster than the electric power supply as a whole. Solar power is among the fastest emergent segments of the renewable energy market. Centralized solar power is produced on large farms and fed into an electrical grid. Globally, gridconnected solar capacity increased an average of 60 percent annually from 2004 to 2009, faster than any other energy source. Today, however, solar power still accounts for less than one-half of one percent of the world’s power output. This solar power can be utilized to conserve energy in various ways. Solar heat collector system is one of it. A good reason to use Solar Heat Collector System(SWHS) instead of conventional energy based systems, is that it offsets those greenhouse gases that would have been generated had the water been heated by electric power or natural gas.
