20120132195 | Convection Driven Two-Component Solar Water Heater Using All-Glass Evacuated Tubes with a Heat Separator - A solar water heater including a heat separator containing either a single partition wall that connects in parallel colder water entering all-glass evacuated tubes with hotter water exiting the same all-glass evacuated tubes, or a number of partition walls that connect in series colder water entering each all-glass evacuated tube with hotter water exiting each all-glass evacuated tube. As water in the evacuated tubes is heated by solar radiation, a hydrodynamic head is created which forces the hot water in the evacuated tubes to flow automatically into the hot water compartment(s) of the heat separator(s) and subsequently through an insulated pipe to a water tank without requiring a pump. The cool water in the water tank flows automatically through an insulated pipe back into the cool water compartment(s) of the heat separator(s) in order to preserve flow continuity. | 05-31-2012 |
