storage tank  Ana Arias 
Component required by most solar thermal systems which purpose is to stockpile energy for days with poor solar radiation. It must be well-insulated and have a slim, cylindrical form in order to develop a layering of temperature in the tank. This allows the optimal usage of the heated potable water in the upper storage region, thus the entire contents of the tank do not need to be heated to the desired temperature.  Ana Arias (src: • HINRICHS, R. A. ; KLEINBACH, M. “Energy: Its Use and the Environment”. 3rd ed. Philadelphia: Harcout College Publishers, 2002. pp. 155-200. ISBN: 0-03-031834-3) 
"As the collector heats the water, it rises to the storage tank, while heavier cold water sinks down to the collector."  Ana Arias (src: U.S DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY: ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND RENEWABLE ENERGY. “Solar Water Heater Energy Efficiency” [en línea]: [Consulta: 02/04/2006])
