Method and apparatus for using solar energy to augment a refrigerant heating and cooling system

摘要: An uninsulated tank-type solar collector for a reverse-refrigeration-cycle heating system is mounted in ambient air and contains mass of water and/or ice having refrigerant expansion coil immersed therein. At least one the walls tank contacts on surface, other surface. Thus, exchanges or transfers heat from by conduction to coil. During transition ice, freezing liberates large amounts energy as "heat fusion" which absorbed
