You can jump to solar heat pump systems if you are only interested in those otherwise keep reading solar panel hot water systems.
The parts of a solar thermal hot water system.
Here s a very simplified diagram that explains the 3 main components of any solar panel based solar hot water system.
Let s go through the diagram.
Later the water flows backs to the collector one more time.

Glycol system for domestic hot water pool and hot tub.
The solar pump station uses a pump to circulate a heat.
System description this solar water heating system consists of four main parts the solar collectors the solar pump station the solar storage tank and the plumbing for the heat transfer fluid.
The cold water enters the solar collector at the lower part and leaves then heated at the upper part to the storage tank.
