Prevention of thermal buildup by controlled exterior means and solar energy collectors
Patent
·
OSTI ID:5982128
An illustrative embodiment of the invention discloses a solar energy system for a building. A plurality of interlocked thermally conductive flat solar energy collecting plates form a portion of the building's surface. Each of these plates has a web which is generally perpendicular to the web surface. This web supports a suitable tube which is received in notched rafters. The tube contains working fluid which absorbs thermal energy collected by the plates and transfers it to storage or to air flowing in a duct which is formed in the building or structure between a sheet which is attached to the opposite side of the rafters and the flat solar collecting plates which provide one surface of the building.
