Abstract
This research is the applied technological kind and has an applied level it's within the Solar Energy Research line, the purpose is to define the configuration of the solar heating system that has an efficient influence to reduce the cold temperature in high Andean homes. To that aim a solar heating systems was designed, built and installed in the districts located between 3600 m.a.s.l. and 4000 m.a.s.l. in the provinces of Chupaca and Concepcion in Junin, Peru. We used the Systemic method and the cause comparative design, to measure temperature variation within the chamber and the room we made sure the isolation of the room was the best possible state. To test the hypothesis, we used the linear regression and the F statistic test of Fisher to determine the significant coefficients of the model. The outcome of the research states that configuration of the solar heating system should have a smaller volume of the chamber with a bigger area of the collector-accumulator, which will increase the temperature in Andean homes.
