Our aim was maintaining high temperature of gas without using any conventional energy resource. We used three system as *parabolic through collector,* Phase changing materials and solar panels. We had successfully increased the efficiency of solar Air Heater with the help of *PTC* & *PCM* which worked as a heat storing materials. and that air Heater was able to supply hot air for 3 to 4 hours after sunset. I have applied for publishing *research paper* in suranaree journal of science and technology. I have also got *grant* for this project form *SSIP* portal for my project amoung three project of the College.
