Venetian-blind solar collector

摘要

A venetian-blind solar collector system having several slat-like members each of which has a radiation-reflecting surface and a heat exchange mechanism, radiation being reflected from the reflecting surface of one member of the collector to the heat exchange mechanism of another member. The members can be oriented to provide energy collection during certain periods of time and then re-oriented to provide a thermal insulating function. The system includes storage facilities for a heated liquid.
