  • Patent number: 11131483
    Abstract: A method for improving the efficiency of a solar heating system based on absorbing heat from solar radiation through the surface of an exposed tube to a liquid. The heat transfer device makes use of this fluid to transfer heat from the outside of the wall to the inside of the wall. The inside wall is then used to heat air that is passed over it, and that air is then used to heat up a heat storage system.

  • Patent number: 10605488
    Abstract: A method for improving the efficiency of a solar heating system based on absorbing heat from solar radiation into the outer surface of a concrete wall. The heat transfer device makes use of a fluid in a tube system to transfer heat from the outside of the wall to the inside of the wall. The inside wall is then used to heat air that is passed over it, and that air is then used to heat up a heat storage system.
