Solar Water Heating Calculation for built up system.
Note to Users: California F-Chart has been designed to calculate solar thermal water heating contributions for built up solar systems.

F-chart is a solar system analysis and design program written by S.A. Klein and W.A. Beckman, the originators of the F-Chart method. It includes meteo database and database of various collector types (flat-plates, evacuated types...)
