Patent
·
OSTI ID:7329007
A solar energy concentrating and collecting arrangement and method in which a semi-cylindrical oblong concave reflector/concentrator forms the roof of a house, school or other building, particularly a heat utilization building. A collector is movably supported in spaced relation above and along the length of the oblong roof/reflector concentrator, for pivotal movement, by a solar reflection energy sensing and seeking drive control arrangement, to a zone of maximum confluence of solar energy rays reflected from the roof/reflector concentrator as a result of variations of sun path during the various parts of the year and also to further accommodate each day's movement of the sun.
