ABSTRACT:
A solar water heater of natural circulation type provided with a reflector for improving the heat collecting efficiency of a heat collector especially in the winter season. The reflector is disposed to satisfy two essential conditions. The first essential condition provides that solar radiation reflected from the reflecting surface of the reflector be substantially entirely directed toward the heat collecting surface of the heat collector at the southing time of the winter solstice, while the second essential condition provides that solar radiation incident upon the heat collecting surface of the heat collector be not excessively interrupted by the reflector at the southing time of the summer solstice.
