Now a day’s different types of solar flat plate collectors are in use. Out of which only few type of collectors proved their performance by producing better results of expected level. In this paper a new set of collectors are combined as mean to improve performance of series SFPC collectors available in market now a days. In such new combination a collector with reduced overall loss coefficient was used to improve the efficiency of the existing system. New collector with zig-zag flow pattern gives a slight change in flow path. Thus the objective of this experimental analysis is to improve efficiency with new set of series FPC by comparing with existing series FPC. Experimental results obtained give better and higher results suggested by theoretical analysis.
