ABSTRACT:
This invention features a mechanism within a flat plate solar collector for modulating the temperature therein by reflecting incident solar radiation with a solar reflective surface and as a function of the temperature within the flat plate collector. The mechanism comprises a movable solar reflective surface which is positioned so as to permit at least partial and preferably complete exposure of a solar energy absorbing surface within the collector when the temperature within the flat plate collector is at a predetermined low level and it is positioned, preferably automatically, so as to at least partially and preferably completely reflect incident solar radiation when the temperature within the flat plate collector is above a predetermined high temperature level.
