A solar thermal collector collects heat by absorbing sunlight. The term "solar collector" commonly refers to a device for solar hot water heating, but may refer to large power generating installations such as solar parabolic troughs and solar towers or non-water heating devices such as solar cookers or solar air heaters.

Mahian et al. evaluated the performance of a flat solar collector consisting of mini-channels with four different nanofluids. The use of mini-channels and micro-channels is less attractive in practical applications, since blockages of the channels and high load losses can occur.
It allows a very detailed specification of collector geometrical and material parameters. It covers a large segment of solar collectors (unglazed, single and double glazed) and evaluates also optical properties of the collector, e.g. incident angle modifier.
A schematic representation of the test configuration for evaluating solar collectors’ performance is shown in Fig. 18. The efficiency of a solar collector can be experimentally obtained by using a pyranometer for measuring the solar irradiation, and thermometers for the measurement of the fluid inlet and outlet temperature, and the air temperature.
