The mathematical model, developed by the authors in previ-ous research, was used. Within this research an algorithm for generating and calculating solar collectors has been developed that is suitable for the geometrical characteristics of the: absorber with circular cross-sectional pipes, ab-sorber with rectangular cross-sectional pipes and absorbers with square cross-section pipes. The results of this re-search show the importance of using advanced CAD tools in the design of solar collectors. The use of these solutions leads to a significant reduction in the design of solar collectors. The application of this approach is very easy for prac-tical purposes.enAttribution-ShareAlike 3.0 United Stateshttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/us/solar collectorsefficiencyparametric generatingadvanced CAD toolsUSAGE OF ADVANCED CAD TOOLS FOR PARAMETRIC MODELING AND EFFICIENCY CALCULATON OF SOLAR COLLECTORSPARAMETARSKO GENERISANJE I PRORAČUN EFIKASNOSTI SOLARNIH PRIJEMNIKA UPOTREBOM NAPREDNIH CAD ALATAconferenceObject
