The article addresses the effect o f a varying factor, called the incidence angle modifier, on the efficiency related to the gross solar collector surface area, achievable during the day. On the basis of the adopted assumptions defining the operating conditions of solar collectors, their averaged efficiencies of solar radiation energy conversion has been calculated. The proposed calculation method makes it possible to prepare a more complete thermal characteristic and to more precisely estimate the energy output of a solar collector under real conditions.
