When the solar radiation is large when the solar heat collector is stopped,
The heating medium remaining inside may be heated to 100 ° C. or more, and may exceed the heat-resistant temperature of the heating medium. Therefore, there is a problem that the heating medium is significantly deteriorated and the life is shortened.

不能となることもあった。Normally, an antifreeze such as polypropylene glycol is used as a heat medium. If the heat medium deteriorates, it is necessary to immediately remove all heat medium from the reserve tank and supply a new heat medium. Increasing the number of operations is not desirable in terms of cost and workability. When the heat medium deteriorates, in the worst case, the evaporation residue may become clogged in the solar heat collector or the circulation path, and may become inoperable.

During normal heat collection operation, that is, when the detected temperature of the second temperature sensor is lower than the first preset temperature, the detected temperature of the third temperature sensor is higher than the detected temperature of the second temperature sensor. When the temperature rises above a certain temperature, the circulation pump starts, and the heat medium returns and the return pipe, the first connection pipe, the second heat exchanger, the second connection pipe, the reserve tank, the circulation pump, the outgoing pipe, and the solar heat collector It flows in the order of At this time, the water above the second heat exchanger in the hot water tank is warmed, but the water below it is not heated.

常、晴天日であっても、1日で貯湯槽内の湯温が相当高
温になることはなく、太陽熱集熱器内の熱媒体の温度も
貯湯槽内の湯温より一定温度以上に高くはならない。Thereafter, when the difference between the temperature detected by the third temperature sensor and the temperature detected by the second temperature sensor falls below a certain temperature, the circulating pump stops. If hot water in the hot water tank is used during the day, evening, or night, heat collection starts from the water temperature the next morning, depending on the ratio between the hot water tank and the heat collection area. In one day, the temperature of the hot water in the hot water storage tank does not become considerably high, and the temperature of the heat medium in the solar heat collector does not become higher than a certain temperature than the hot water temperature in the hot water storage tank.

器で貯湯槽内のお湯が引き続き加熱される。However, when the amount of hot water in the hot water tank is small or unused, the sunny day continues, the circulating pump is activated, and the temperature of the hot water in the hot water tank gradually rises, and the second temperature sensor detects the hot water. When the temperature becomes higher than the first set temperature and the temperature detected by the third temperature sensor becomes higher than the temperature detected by the first temperature sensor by a certain temperature or more, the second heat is generated by the first and second three-way valves. The flow of the heat medium is switched from the exchanger to the first heat exchanger, and the water in the lower part of the hot water storage tank is warmed by the first heat exchanger. This water is heated to the same temperature as the hot water above the second heat exchanger, that is, to the first set temperature. Even if the temperature exceeds the first set temperature, the hot water is stored in the first heat exchanger. The hot water inside is continuously heated.
【0022】従って第2の熱交換器よりも下部の貯湯量

終了時点での貯湯槽内の湯温を第1の設定温度以下にす

の劣化を防止できる。Therefore, if the amount of hot water stored below the second heat exchanger is commensurate with the amount of heat collected thereafter, the temperature of the hot water in the hot water storage tank at the end of the heat collection in the evening is set to the first set temperature. If the first set temperature is equal to or lower than the heat-resistant temperature of the heat medium, the deterioration of the heat medium can be prevented without stopping the circulation pump.

切り替わるが、この時、第2の熱交換器よりも下部の湯

槽全体の湯温が第1の設定温度以上になってしまう。Similarly, when hot water is not used and the temperature detected by the second temperature sensor reaches or exceeds the first set temperature on the next day or on a sunny day, the first and second three-way valves are used. The flow of the heat medium is switched from the second heat exchanger to the first heat exchanger. At this time, if the temperature of the hot water below the second heat exchanger is too high, the temperature immediately reaches the first set temperature. Then, the temperature of the hot water in the entire hot water tank becomes higher than the first set temperature.

の湯温を第2の設定温度まで下げることができる。In order to prevent the maximum temperature of the hot water in the hot water tank from exceeding the first set temperature even when the sunny day continues without using hot water, the second heat exchanger is used. In order to delay the time of switching from the first heat exchanger to the first heat exchanger, and to be able to absorb the amount of heat collected by the amount of hot water stored below the second heat exchanger even after the switching, the inside of the hot water storage tank at the start of heat collection in the morning It is necessary to keep the hot water temperature at or below a second set temperature lower than the first set temperature. Therefore, after the heat collection in the evening,
And when the detection temperature of the second temperature sensor is higher than the second set temperature, and the detection temperature of the third temperature sensor is lower than a certain temperature than the detection temperature of the first and second temperature sensors, When the temperature of the heat collector becomes lower than the temperature of the hot water in the hot water tank, the circulation pump is activated to perform the heat radiation operation, and the temperature of the hot water in the hot water tank can be reduced to the second set temperature.
