    Solar energy is the most abundant, inexhaustible and clean of all renewable energy resources to date, it allows to reduce both the consumption of fossil fuels and the emission of harmful pollutants introduced into the atmosphere. Solar technologies are currently part of the global energy strategy, by virtue of which they do not present environmental or health risks. The present research allows to determine the optimal positioning of the vacuum tube solar collector located at the Escuela Politécnica Superior de Chimborazo for obtaining useful thermal energy. The type of research is correlational with a quantitative approach and an experimental design. Studies that include experimental and simulation models are reviewed, which helps to compare previous approaches with the current treatment of the problem. The mathematical model simulation was performed in the statistical software Rstudio, with three temperatures initials (T 1, T2, T3) and with different angles of tilt starting at 10ºC to 60 ºC and with 4 angles orientation (0 ◦, 30◦, 60◦and 90). It is concluded that the water temperature in the solar collector system is inversely related to the angle of inclination, since when increasing said angle from 10º to 60º it was observed that the water temperature decreases, therefore if you want to maximize the water temperature it should be placed with an angle of inclination of 10º and 0º orientation
