ABSTRACT:
The specification teaches a system for collecting heat energy from solar radiation to heat a liquid medium. The system includes a solar radiation collector plate which has its rear face adapted to cause a liquid medium to be in direct thermal contact with the rear face of the plate while flowing over and covering essentially all of the rear face. According to one important aspect of the invention, the rear face is provided with a material having capillary attraction properties to spread a liquid medium across essentially all of the rear face of the plate so that the liquid medium absorbs large amounts of heat energy from the collector plate.
