ABSTRACT:
A solar heating system includes a solar collector comprising a continuous length of copper tubing coiled into a helical array of closely adjacent turns and supported within a sealed housing. The outer turns of the array are fabricated of tubing having a greater diameter than the tubing which forms the inner turns of the array, and the total length of the larger diameter tubing in the array is greater than that of the smaller diameter tubing. The relationships beween the tubing diameters and lengths are selected to achieve a desired flow rate and temperature rise for the overall array. The array is supported within the housing by copper sheets which also operate to eliminate moisture condensation within the housing.
