ABSTRACT:
An improved pebble bed heat storage means is provided for a solar heating system using air as the heat transfer medium. The pebble bed is confined in a crib or bin contained in an outer housing. The sides of the bin are air pervious and are spaced from the side walls of the housing to define enlarged plenum chambers. Baffles or partitions divide each of the plenum chambers into upper and lower plenum spaces. An upper warm air inlet is provided for the upper plenum space at one side of the pebble bed and is connected by a duct to the outlet from the solar collector panels. An upper warm air outlet is provided at the upper plenum space at the opposite side of the pebble bed and is connected through a conventional furnace with the room space to be heated. A lower cool air inlet is provided for the lower plenum space at the same side of the pebble bed as the upper warm air inlet and is connected to the room space by a cool air return duct. A lower cool air outlet is provided at the lower plenum space at the same side of the pebble bed as the upper warm air outlet and is connected by a blower and a duct to the inlet of the solar collector panels.
