Flat‐plate solar collectors are one of the cleanest and most efficient heating systems available. Studies on the presence of covalently functionalized graphene (Gr) suspended in distilled water as operating fluids inside an indoor flat‐plate solar collector (FPSC) were experimentally and theoretical...
