Flat plate solar thermal systems are another common type of solar collector which have been in use since the 1950s.
The schematic of a flat plate solar collector with liquid transport medium is given here. The black absorber plate absorbs radiant heat from sunlight. due to convection and radiation to the atmosphere. There are tubes carrying water, which gets heated due to the heat absorbed. The thermal insulation prevents heat loss during heat transfer.
Flat plate collectors is used to convert at much solar radiation as possible into heat at the highest attainable temperature with the lowest possible investment in material and labour. Flat plate collector have the following advantage over other types of solar energy collectors: (i) Absorb direct, diffuse and reflected components o solar radiation,

In Corning Glass Company’s design, a flat absorber plate with an attached water tube is sealed into a glass tube that is then evacuated. Solar energy is absorbed on the absorber plate and is extracted by water or other heat-transfer fluid flowing through the attached tube. Figure 6.6 Designs of evacuated-tube collectors.
