ABSTRACT:
A solar energy control apparatus is provided for use in conjunction with a water storage tank and performs the functions of converting solar radiation to heat energy and controlling transfer of heat relative to the water contained in the storage tank. The structure of this apparatus includes a structural frame that may be floated on the water, a plurality of metal plates carried by the frame for converting solar radiation and controlling of the heat transfer relative to the body of water and a cover of glass or plastic panels and thermally insulating-radiation reflecting walls. This cover includes a radiation transmissive panel and an opaque panel attached at one end to one another in longitudinally aligned relationship and supported on the frame in an inverted V along with closing sidewalls. The frame has projecting from it into the water below heat conductive metal plates which are coated on one side with a heat absorbing coating and on the other with a radiation reflective coating. These plates are selectively movable into and out of the water and in angled position for controlling radiation conversion and heat transfer. The inwardly facing surface of the opaque panel is coated with a radiation-reflective surface coating and is provided with thermally insulative material in its wall.
