Evacuated Tube vs Flat Plate Collectors

In general, in warmer climates (i.e. Florida) the Flat Plates are more efficient, however in colder climates Evacuated Tubes work better, mainly because they are "a vacuum tube" and any heat they collect / trap, stays trapped due to the insulating vacuum. This is not always the case though, there are hundreds of manufactures of all types of ...

Evacuated Tube Solar Collector

4.3.2 Evacuated tube collectors. Evacuated tube collector is a tube-like collector consisting of series of evacuated tubes to raise water temperature for use when received sunlight. Vacuum, or evacuated spaces are used in the tubes to let in radiations and trap heat by reducing heat loss to the atmosphere.

So the evacuated tube collector produced roughly 830W/h more than the flat plate on this day. Please also note that this measurement was done on a rainy day in summer so the radiation levels are low but the ambient temperature was relatively high (22°C). In winter the flat plate collector would be even more sensitive to the ambient temperature.
