Abstract
A solar collector comprises a flat absorber and an associated evaporation/condensation system. The evaporation zone, which is in thermal contact with the absorber, has a number of outwardly and downwardly extending protrusions which are spaced along its length and which serve for collecting heat transport medium condensate returning to the evaporation zone under the influence of gravity.
