ABSTRACT:
A heat pipe is used to transfer heat from an outside solar panel into a building where the heat can be stored in a heat absorber. Various heat pipe structures are disclosed where the pipe passes through the wall of the building and where it has an end portion thermally contacting the solar panel. Heat transfer can be stopped by rotating the heat pipe, by the use of plungers and trap chambers in the pipe or by specially designed heat pipes that can be easily removed. The heat pipe can also be used to remove heat from the inside to the outside. The inside end portion of the heat pipe is in thermal contact with a heat absorber inside the building which contains a phase change material. Modular wall units can also be made having the solar panel and heat absorber integral on each side of the wall with the heat pipe in between.
