ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE This invention relates to an improved solar heating panel for converting solar energy to thermal energy in a cir- culating fluid to be used for heating or other purposes. A transparent plastic film is secured to a flat dark opaque sur- face to form a channel therebetween for the circulating fluid. The transparent film which faces the sun is uneven shaped whereby some of the sun's rays which strike the solar panel are reflected to an adjacent portion of the panel. For instance, the film may be shaped to form a series of interconnected domes or pyramids, or a number of interconnected semitubular portions. The solar radiation which passes through the transparent film is received by the opaque surface where it is converted to thermal energy in the presence of the carrier fluid. The resulting im- proved efficiency permits smaller solar collectors to be con- structed at a lesser cost, and also eliminates the need to attempt to have the solar panel move to face the sun at right angles as it constantly changes position.
