Photos of all steps of the project

     Choosing everybody`s atributions, the agency name and the project we want to make.


                                    Buying the materials that are required to build our solar pannel.

   
 
 Now we should start building our solar panel.

First we set up the team in the school workshop and get dressed properly for work.


First step: we need to build the wooden box to house the whole assembly.
The housing is made of wood because it is durable and has less weight.


We must fix an aluminium plate on the back of the box.
It covers the back of the box and keeps the assembly together.


After that the box is almost ready.
All that is left to do is to varnish the box with a special solution to protect the  wood.


Then we must process the copper pipes that we need to put in the whole assembly.

First we must cut the pipes.
After that we need to weld the pieces of copper pipes together in the needed shape.



We place the mineral wool over the copper pipe assembly and fix it.
The mineral wool  helps the pipes heat up.


Then we must cut  some aluminum fins to put under the pipes.
This will also make the pipes heat up because aluminum heats up faster than cooper.



Then we must paint the fins in black paint.
This will also help because black color atracts more heat.

After that we must seal the whole assembly with polycarbonate.
Polycarbonate is specially made to use all the light avaible to heat up the pipes.
We must seal the whole assembly with aluminum angle brackets.
