Problems solved by technology

First, the system, and especially the plumbing elements of the system together, dissipate a large amount of heat
Second, the larger size of rectangular collecting elements can make them difficult to fix, and it also creates a lack of flexibility in the design and installation of solar thermal systems
Third, the relative complexity of the rectangular collection elements adds to the cost of solar water heating installations and may make the collection elements themselves difficult to alter or repair

Embodiment Construction

[0102] figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of the solar heat collection system of the present invention. The system includes solar collector tubes 1 as heat collecting elements, which can be arranged in various arrays to suit any particular installation. In this embodiment, the solar collector tube is an evacuated solar tube, although various alternative forms of solar collector tubes are known to those skilled in the art. In this figure three arrays are shown, each having a series of side-by-side solar tubes. Each array can include any number of solar tubes of any size. The open ends of the solar tubes of each array are coupled to the insulated pipes 3 that have been sleeved in each section to circulate the working flow, as referenced Figures 6 to 9 further described.

[0103] A system of conduits conducts a working fluid, such as water, between the heating elements 1 and from these heating elements 1 partly or fully to a heat load (not shown) and from th...

Abstract

A solar heat collection system for heating water, the system comprising in one embodiment a plurality of lengths of water conduit pipe inside lengths of water conduit jacket pipe and spaced apart therefrom, with an insulating medium contained between the pipe and jacket pipe. The lengths of water conduit pipe are fluidly connected together to provide a circulation system for the water such that solar heat energy may be provided to a heat load. A variety of connection methods for connecting the lengths of piping are provided and the lengths of piping may be flexible for a variety of solar heat system installations.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an improved solar heat collection system which in an exemplary embodiment is a solar water heating system. Background technique [0002] A typical solar thermal collection system, such as a solar heating system, includes one or more thermal collection elements through which a working stream, such as water, is circulated and heated. These solar collector elements are usually affixed to roofs, walls, or other locations where they are exposed to the sun. For example, in domestic, agricultural, commercial, light industrial applications, such solar thermal systems are typically used to heat water, assist in heating water, or space heating. [0003] Solar heating systems also include conduits that conduct work flow from one or more heat collecting elements, through, for example, the roof and / or walls of a dwelling or building on which they are secured, to, for example, a hot water tank or other thermal load. [0004] Commo...
