ABSTRACT:
Solar energy absorbing means in solar collectors are provided by matts of a fibrous material which by its chemical composition absorbs solar radiation, converting this energy to thermal energy within the fiber itself. The solar energy absorbing properties of the fibers are controlled by the state of oxidation and amounts of various multivalent chemical components contained within the material composing the fibers. The thermal energy thus collected is transferred to a heat transfer medium by either passing the fluid directly through the matt of fibers or through pipes or coils imbedded in the matt.
