Abstract
For several years the performance and the use of air solar heaters built in large single-unit surfaces and inserted in building structures have been investigated. The calculation procedure for predicting the behaviour of many types of conventional collectors is described; the characteristics and the results of some experimental models are indicated. The fundamental equations regulating the thermal balance in the collector are shown together with the corresponding graphical representation. The criteria suggesting the introduction of air heaters directly into the building structures are discussed. Finally we give the description of some working plants: 1) a single-unit collector for the Civiglio school space heating; 2) a solar facade for heating the gymnasium in Moscoro; 3) a solar roof for hay drying in Tavazzano.
