A student of the 9th grade Zhenis Bozhaev presented an innovative project. His invention makes it possible to use solar energy for household needs.

According to the student, his project is designed to reduce the harmful impact on the environment, reducing dependence on coal, fuel and electricity. To do this, victory first developed a drawing of a solar collector and began with the assembly of the unit from parts.

"When assembling the collector, I used a wooden frame and penoplex heat insulation. Thus, I formed a hermetic tightness of the system through double-glazed windows. I tested the efficiency using a special container as a heat accumulator. The Collector device with a volume of 0.33 M2 showed that it can heat up to a temperature of 30°C and store 2,142,000 J of energy throughout the day. I hope that through the implementation of the project I will contribute to improving the ecology of my native land," says the young inventor.

According to him, the solar collector can be used to heat agricultural and domestic buildings and provide water needs. Considering that agriculture needs water in the range of 30-90°C, the student is sure that this system will help improve the life of the region.

The mentioned device has been tested. According to the student's calculations, with a solar collector covering an area of 23 m2, it is possible to heat the interior of an average house and provide hot water. Placing such a device on the roof of the house is more efficient and saves space.
