A solar collector arrangement includes a number of assemblies (1), which are immersed or partially immersed in a pond of water (2). Each assembly (1) includes a parabolic reflector (3) and an absorber (6). Barriers (10) are Iocated on or near the surface of the water (2) and operate to reduce waves which may otherwise disturb the direct passage of sunlight in windy conditions. The complete immersion of the assembly (1) in the liquid serves to simultaneously protect and cool the apparatus, while allowing ease of sun~10 tracking movements by buoyancy induced rotation. Partially immersed versions have higher efficiency and protect against severe weather by inverting into the water.

L'invention concerne un arrangement de capteurs solaires, qui comprend plusieurs ensembles (1) immergés ou partiellement immergés dans un bassin à eau (2). Chaque ensemble (1) comprend un réflecteur parabolique (3) et un absorbeur (6). Des barrières (10) ménagées à la surface de l'eau ou à proximité de la surface de l'eau (2) ont pour fonction de réduire les ondes qui, autrement peuvent perturber le passage direct de la lumière solaire dans des conditions de vent. L'immersion complète de l'ensemble (1) dans le liquide permet de protéger et de refroidir simultanément l'appareil, tout en facilitant la poursuite du soleil dans sa course, par rotation induite par la flottabilité. Des versions partiellement immergées présentent une efficacité supérieure et une meilleure protection par temps violent, par inversion dans l'eau.
