ABSTRACT:
A two-sided solar collector is housed between a pair of opposed corrugated translucent plates which define a series of side by side elongated cavities. In alternate ones of the cavities are located integral elongated elastomeric solar energy absorbing elements including a series of side by side tubular conduits for heat transfer fluid and stretchable left and right margins terminated with beads that sealably engage the interiors of the empty cavities. A corrugated reflector below the solar collector reflects light passing through the empty cavities toward the cavities having the energy absorbing elements. The elongated solar energy absorbing elements may be configured as one such continuous element which is alternately run back and forth through the alternate cavities to form plural meandering fluid paths through the solar collector. Alternatively, interconnecting elements at the ends of the conduits are provided to define a fluid path passing serially through each conduit of each solar energy absorbing element.
