Abstract: A solar heat collector designed to obtain maximum heat from sunlight rays when operational and minimum heat from sunlight rays when non-operational. The solar heat collector contains two sheets of solid material spaced and confronting each other between which a heat transfer liquid flows through baffle arrangement so as to increase the efficiency for obtaining higher temperatures of the heat transfer liquid.
