Why are there more windows on one side of a solar heated building?

There are more windows on one side of a solar heated building so that they are more efficient. There is more sun on the southern side of a building, so the panels are placed there to absorb more of the sun's heating energy.

How do solar reflectors improve the efficiency of solar collectors?
A solar reflector directs more sunlight into the solar collector. The more solar energy that is directed to the solar panel, the more electrical energy that is generated.
What type of solar events are there?
There are sunspots, solar winds, solar flares, and more
Why does the thermosphere have the highest temperature out of all the other layers?
The thermosphere is heated by solar radiation particularly in the far ultraviolet range; much of this is filtered out by the atmosphere's lower layers - but in the these upper regions it is more exposed to this kind of radiation.
What is a another name for solar energy?
Another name for solar energy is solar power. Solar power should be utilized a lot more due to the fact it is so simple! One more name you can take it that is natural resources, for more details please consult renuenergysolutions.com as they are market leader in providing Solar Panels & Solar Energy Installer.
How can we make solar power more affordable?
As more people buy solar panels the price comes down.
Why japan and US have more solar heated homes than other counters?
There is a lack of fossil fuels in both countries that spurred a move to use renewable solar energy as a resource. Additionally, both countries have long sunny periods.
What is a useful feature of a building or place?
some of the main features are things like... gates stairs windows windows sills gargoyles... even more
What is the temperature of a heated pool?
The answer will depend on where in the world the pool is.
Do Passive Solar Homes use regular solar panels?
They often do but building a passive home is more of an architectural approach to building a home that focuses on low energy consumption quickly absorbing or releasing solar heat gain or breezes as needed. Although many Passive Solar Homes do use Solar Panels, especially those for Water heating and sometimes Energy, they are not an essential part of the design principle.
Does solar energy consume natural resources that cannot be renewed?
I admit that I am confused by the question. If you mean converting the power of the sun into electriciy, then yes. The process of converting solar energy (from the sun) into electricity or heat will consume nonrenewable resources, either by making electricity with solar cells or by building homes (or other buildings) using passive solar heat. However, you can recycle both building materials and solar panel materials to low the environmental costs to both. There is a cool site to make your own solar panels where they list resources to get used materials, such as used solar cells, for building your solar power system. Here's the link: http://NewDIYSolar.com Hope this helps!
How much does it cost to use solar power?
It can be very expensive and takes a long time to see returns. More and more are building their own to keep costs very low.
Do solar panels produce radiation which then harms humans?
A solar panel collects energy from sunlight, just like windmills convert wind energy. The mechanics inside the solar panel and inside the building let humans use solar energy. There is no more harm to humans from solar energy than there is from using energy produced from the wind.
How do solar reflectors improve the efficiency of solar collectors?
A solar reflector directs more sunlight into the solar collector. The more solar energy that is directed to the solar panel, the more electrical energy that is generated.
When a meal is heated onboard the aircraft how many more times can that meal be re-heated?
A meal should not be re-heated more than once.
How can you collect more resources from asteroids in Sins of a Solar Empire?
by building up you civilian tech tree... you research different things and then the astroids yeil more profit per second
