ABSTRACT:
A solar water heater has a basin or reservoir for collection and storage of heated water, a generally pyramidal or prism shaped structure for absorbing solar radiation, a transparent pyramidal or prism shaped structure for enclosing and thermally isolating the reservoir and radiation absorbing element, a pump and associated apparatus for projecting the water against heat absorbing structure and a valve for controlling the flow of heated water from the reservoir. The heat absorbing structure and the enclosing structure are comprised of a multiplicity of planar elements that can be disassembled for transport or for storage. The power consumption from external sources for operating the solar heating device can be reduced by providing a battery and by using air, expanded through the process of heating the water, to drive an electrical generator, the generator charging the battery.
