ABSTRACT:
An installation for utilizing solar energy for heating air and delivering heated air to a building or the like includes a solar heat collector, a heat storage unit, a blower for producing the desired air flow and ducting connecting the components to permit operation in various modes. A unitary controller is provided in the form of an enclosure containing a blower and having three air flow ports. Ducting extends between the first port and the collector, between the second port and the heat storage unit, between the third port and the building, and between the building, heat storage unit, and collector. Flow control and directing means unitized within the enclosure establish three different air transport loops through the blower for three different heat transfer modes. A first loop connects the blower, storage unit and collector to deliver heat from the collector to the storage unit. A second loop connects the blower, building and collector to deliver heat from the collector to the building. A third loop connects the blower, building and storage unit to deliver heat from the storage unit to the building. The flow control devices and actuators are all located in unitary fashion at the enclosure for simplicity, convenience and reliability.
