matching reflector length to the collector



Some video thoughts on matching my gen2 reflector to insulated collector evacuated tubes of various lengths for solar heating and some hardware views.

This is a work in process, actually part of a book I will publish shortly about the work at it's current stage.

If you want more info, you might look at this:

or anything on the solar thermal tab at the top of this page.


It was cold yesterday in the workshop. How appropriate to be talking about a solar heater.

Truthfully, the weather has been awful for two weeks and solar heating would have been useless here. The sun does not shine.

Thanks for your interest. I am able to work steadily on this effort but it seems to expand. I will be taking a short break for the next week to visit sunny California.



Thank you for your interest.
