ABSTRACT:
A solar energy collector includes a housing having a cover transparent to solar energy. A solar energy absorber is enclosed within the housing just beneath the cover. The absorber is formed to define a plurality of narrow fluid channels of triangular cross section which are disposed in close proximity to each other. The triangular cross section fluid channels are defined by a serpentine-shaped metal top sheet which is secured to a flat metallic bottom sheet. The upper ridges of the fluid channels are disposed in proximity to and support the cover. The geometric relation between the fluid channels, the narrow air spaces defined between the fluid channels and the cover is such as to provide a low cost, high efficiency panel.
