The depicted flowcharts outline the structure and the function of a simple solar panel. Overall, the solar paner has a simple structure which makes the function easy to be understood, while the process of the uses itself illustrates how the cool air and water can be transformed to warm air and water.
The structure of solar panel consists of a box with the inlet and outlet at the edge of the box, which allow a substance to go along the box. Additionally, a transparent top is applied to the top of the box in order to absorb the sun’s heat. Once set, the solar panel is able to be used for purposes.
The process of heating air begin with cool air enters the inlet, and with presence of sun rays, the transparent glass will absorb the heat, resulting a warm air at the outlet. Similarly, the second procedure is transforming warm water to cool water. Following the flow into the inlet and the transparent top absorbing the heat, the water then go along the water pipe designed inside of the box, allowing the water to flow and turn into warm water at the same time. Warm water subsequently come out from the outlet.
