Abstract: In this paper, the performance of a [`]built-in' storage solar water heater-flat mirror system has been presented. Numerical calculations have been made for a typical cold day (viz. 28 Jan. 1980) at Delhi. The booster mirror causes a minimum temperature rise during the moring and a temperature difference of 7°C excess with respect to the reference panel occurred. The reflectance of the mirror is taken as 0·88.
