N2 - The research shows the development process of a 3 m2 flat solar collector, composed of three modules of 1 m2 each, with labyrinth trap geometry, turbulence ridges and thermal energy storage tanks, the latter using different types of phase change materials (PCM), specifically two types of paraffins with melting points in the range of 48 to 58 ℃. Additionally, one of its modules filled with motor oil. During the first phase, a bibliometric exploration methodology is carried out with VOSviewer Software, identifying prominent technologies in the subject, which allows the design and simulation of a prototype using CAD Software. Subsequently, when implementing it, an analysis of the behavior of the vacuum collector with respect to the use of thermal energy storage is carried out, identifying the advantages in the use of PCM. Among the results, a working power close to 450 W and an approximate efficiency of 25% stand out, contrasting with the simulation, the importance of PCMs in increasing the efficiency of these devices used in different applications is concluded.
