Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

A solar heat collector and radiator is a heat collecting and heat radiating roof structure, designed for building roofs specifically. It was built to be used in conjunction with solar energy and uses a system of air circulation for increased efficiency.

solar parabolic troughs, or solar towers. Today many people create their own DIY solar heat collectors, but the inventor William Goettl was the first to design and patent this technology.[2]

Usage

William Goettl found in 1977 that many building roofs have heat collectors, often pipes, to warm up water or air for a building.[3]

Design

The Solar Heat Collector & Radiator for Building Roof consists of a U-shaped

U.S. Patent Office with patent number US4098260.[4]
It has since been cited by five other patents and referenced by twenty-eight other patents, dating from 1977 to present day, including the modern model of a solar-powered water heating system designed by the Snyder National Corporation, and a solar heating panel by Solar Shelter Engineering Inc.

History

William H. Goettl was one of the original members of the Sheet Metal Air Rail and Transportation (SMART) charter. He was an instrumental founding role for the Sheet Metal Workers’ Local Union 359 in

HVAC contractor in the United States and started introducing significant patents to the industry. William Goettl filed for a patent
for the Solar Heat Collector & Radiator for Building Roof on February 7, 1977 and his patent published on July 4, 1978.
