ABSTRACT:
A lightweight and durable solar collector employing a fibrous absorber. Sufficient fiber mass may be used to blanket all radiation. The absorber is disposed between a transparent cover and a heat insulating shield behind which may be a rigid collector container. A reflector disposed between the absorber and the insulation is optional. Air enters the collector passes into a duct near bottom of the absorber and across the width of the absorber, flows parallel to and through the thinnest dimension of the absorber conducting heat from the fiber at the depths of greatest absorption and then exits through a similar duct located near the top of the absorber and out of the collector.
