Abstract

Solar Ponds are used for storing solar thermal energy without the expense of storage devices. Solar Ponds
can store low grade thermal heat of 70-80°C at ambient temperature of 20°C. They are ponds with saline water that can
store sensible heat. These ponds have made a tremendous growth in past thirty years. In this paper we have presented the
effects of using different tube geometries in solar pond using experimental setup in college campus. Tubes are made of
copper. Also the effect of changing salinity has been discussed.
