N2  - The description and operation of a Thermal Solar Water Pump is briefly described. The heat transfer analysis of the collector has been made to find the variation of temperature and pressure of pentane heated by the collector for a given pattern of isolation.  The information obtained from the heat transfer analysis is made use of to arrive at the number of cycles the pump can perform per day. The variation of the number of cycles per day is discussed for various discharge heads and condensation times
