ABSTRACT:
A solar energy collector that includes a number of elongate, hollow, metallic, tubular members of such transverse cross section that when disposed side-by-side they define a number of spaced longitudinal apertures through which solar energy rays are directed by lens systems into a number of elongate cavities having dark or black surfaces. The hollow members have the ends so connected to one another that water or other fluid flowing to the collector sequentially traverses the longitudinal passages in the tubular members prior to discharging from the collector. During the flow through the passages heat is transferred to the water or other fluid flowing therethrough from the heated cavities. The solar rays directed by the lens system into the cavities may, if desired, be used to activate photoelectric cells, and the light be transformed directly into electricity.
