Abstract
An air type heating system includes a heat collector connected to heat air streams running through the collector by solar heat and a heat storage member containing heat-storage material for absorbing heat of the air heated by the heat collector and progressively accumulating heat, starting with one air port. A room is heated by the heated air supplied from the heat collector and/or the heat storage member through the one air part thereof.
Claims12
An air type heating system comprising a heat-charging circuit including a heat storage apparatus provided with first and second air openings between which air flows, a heat collector connected between the air openings of the heat storage appartus to heat air streams running through said collector by solar energy, a first blower connected between said heat collector and said first air opening for circulating air streams through the heat storage apparatus in a first direction from the first air opening to the second air opening of the heat storage appartus, and an air flow rate-controlling device connected between said heat collector and said first air opening for regulating an amount of air thus circulated, said heat storage apparatus containing heat-storage material for absorbing heat from the air heated by the heat collector and progressively accumulating heat, starting with the first air opening;
- and a heat discharging circuit including a heated chamber connected to the first and second air openings of the heat storage apparatus, and a second blower connected to the first air opening for circulating air through the heat storage apparatus in a direction opposite the first direction from the second air opening to the first air opening of the heat storage apparatus, heating air by the heat accumulated in the heat storage material, and conducting the heated air through said first air opening to the chamber of a dwelling being heated.
