Apparatus for the utilization of radiated solar energy to heat the interior space of a building includes a solar energy collector in the form of a south-facing wall, energy storage elements in the form of remaining wall structures that, in combination with the collector wall, define the interior space, and a combination of conduit and air moving apparatus to circulate air warmed by the solar energy collector wall to the storage walls, where energy is stored, and returning the exhausted air to the collector wall.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION It is therefore an important object of this invention to provide a new and economically feasible system for heating buildings operated wholly or in part with solar energy.
It is also an object of this invention to provide an efficient solar energy collector which makes use of an improved heat absorption element, and which is further made more efficient by an improved means of transferring heat to storage.
Another important object of this invention is to provide additional collector efficiency through the added function of radiant heat transfer of the residual heat stored within the collector elements.
It is a further object of this invention to provide a method of low cost storage of the solar heat.
It is still a further object of this invention to provide a simple and efficacious means of heat distribution so said heat may be used as required to meet the building's needs.
A yet additional object of the present invention is to utilize the heating system provided in reverse for summer cooling by storing available cooler temperatures in certain components of the system for later use.
These purposes and objects of the present invention are obtained by wrapping the interior space to be warmed or cooled in a mass of masonary and controlling the temperature of that masonary.
The effect of the present invention is to provide a heating/cooling system which has as its major emphasis radiant control.
A recent publication of the American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) Systems Handbook states: In searching for the correct conditions which will be compatible with the physiological demands of the human body, no system can be rated as completely satisfactory which does not satisfy the three main factors controlling the heat loss from the human body: namely, radiation, convection, and evaporation.
The greatest of these losses is that due to radiation, which, physiologically appears to be the most important.
In spite of this, however, it rarely receives consideration in any type of air conditioning system, and is ignored entirely in all types of warm air or convected heat systems
