ABSTRACT:
A plurality of collector panels are mounted so as to be rotatable in unison about their longitudinal axes. One side or face of each panel is provided with a radiation absorbing surface and the other side or face is provided with a radiation reflective surface. Each panel includes a compartmentalized plastic tray in which is encapsulated thermal storage or phase change material having an appropriate heat of fusion so that radiation striking the absorptive surface will be stored in the material for subsequent release. Owing to the rotatability of the various panels, when mounted adjacent a conventional window, they can be adjusted or tilted so as to control the temperature of a room. Flexible seals are attached to the edges of the panels so as to block the flow of air between the panels when the panels are closed, that is, with the radiation surface facing either outwardly or inwardly.
