Solar energy tracking and collector apparatus

摘要

An apparatus for tracking and collecting solar energy including at least one collector having elongated reflective surfaces which are parabolic in cross-section. A heat collection and transfer conduit is carried by said collector with said conduit having an inlet at one end and an outlet at the other end. The inlet is connected to an inlet manifold and the outlet is connected to an outlet manifold. An agitator moves a fluid through the inlet manifold, the conduit for warming then through said outlet manifold. The collector is rotated about a longitudinal axis thereof with such rotation directed by a sun sensing device.
