OSTI ID:5648346
A low profile, light weight and economical evacuated-bottle solar collector module is described. A row of off-shelf high vacuumware bottles as used for soup or coffee, without their usual reflective silvering, are fitted with absorbers and have their open ends fixed in grooves for support and thermal insulation in a combination insulation-support carrying frame. Holes are adapted in the frame for passage of the heat transfer fluid. Additional insulation members form header ducts for an air transfer medium or provide insulation and support of liquid tight tubing for a liquid transfer medium.
