Abstract
A solar heating system of the liquid heat transfer collector type in which provision is made for circulating the heat exchange medium only, then the collector temperature bears a predetermined relation to the storage medium, and where, a heat exchange liquid dissipating means is provided to dissipate heat in the medium when the collector temperature exceeds a predetermined value.
Claims6
A solar energy heating system, comprising a solar heat absorber, a heat storing device, means for utilizing heat in said storing device, a heat exchange medium for transporting heat from said absorber to said storing device, a heat dissipating means, first and second conduit means for conveying the heat exchange medium between said absorber and said heat storing device, third conduit means operatively connectable between said first and second conduits to bypass to medium in said absorber from said storing device, said thrid conduit means including said dissipating means, means for normally circulating the medium through said first and second conduit means between said absorber and said storage device, and means responsive to the temperature of the medium reaching a predetermined value for connecting said third conduit means to pass said heat exchange medium from said absorber through said dissipating means.
