Abstract: The paper is concerned with the study of two-phase solar thermosyphon for domestic hot water (SDHW). Due to a combination of ideas of the heat pipe and classical thermosyphon, the heat transfer in the proposed installation is to be realised by the liquid - gas phase change, what should increase significantly both the heat efficiency of the system and the system applicability.
