The Chemistry When the sun heats the gas it is provided with thermal energy, which in turn raises the internal energy (the sum of all microscopic kinetic and potential energy of the molecules). The molecules move with a higher value of kinetic energy, which simply implies each molecule moves with a higher velocity than before. As the molecules collide with one another they rebound with higher energies, moreover intermolecular forces weaken and the molecules space out further which results in an increase in volume.

Those who may be concerned how the condenser addresses any additional heat generated by Solar Thermal: First and foremost, the systems condenser is designed to manage the compressors running at full load. The reality is when the sun is in the sky (the time when most systems run at full load), the system will ensure that all compressors virtually never run at full load. Of course it would be fantastic to achieve the additional efficiency without additional heat, but the additional heat is the price we pay in return for the higher efficiency. We actually want the heat from the solar panel, utilising the heat (temperature not pressure) we increase the gas molecules kinetic energy, hence increasing the mass volume flow, and additionally creating an improved Delta T therefore enhancing the efficiency of the heat exchanger (condenser). All Refrigeration and A/C systems are manufactured to a very specific design point, e.g. for A/C systems ISO This point sets the capacities for the compressor, condenser and all other parts. The facts covered in the second paragraph above allows the system to easily cope with any additional heat, as is shown here and further clarified in third party testing data (T after condenser): Next… Very important 10kW system without solar thermal T-discharge T-after condenser 10kW system with solar thermal T-after panel T-discharge T-after condenser

Solar thermal system Non solar Inverter Data Measurement The illustration below demonstrates the energy usage on a solar thermal assisted DC inverter system in comparison to an identical A+ rated DC inverter system. A clear cut case of ‘the hotter it gets’ the less the system works’ – and as importantly the more the comparison A+ system works.
