Paper details:

Estimate how much collector area and storage capacity would be required for an active

solar hot-water system designed to supply the total needs for two four-person families, one

living in Manchester, New Hampshire, where the latitude is 44+o

north and the other in

Albuquerque, New Mexico, at 35+o North. The heat capacity of water is about 4200 J/kgo

C and

the hot water supply temperature in both houses is 60o

C (140o

F). State and justify all additional

assumptions made.
