The invention provides a simplistic solar panel which utilizes air pressure
for shape,
flotation, wind resistance, and easy of installment on the water surface of
any pool.
The design has four layers of thermoplastic polyolefin elastomer which are
welded
together and do not become glass like until minus 40 degrees C and remain
elastic
until 100 degrees C. The upper two layers are separated to a bubble shape
when
inflated and sealed by a flexible feed tube and the second and third layers
dark to
black in color are additionally welded together to form a manifold to channel
the
water for heat pickup then discharge through flexible flow tubes. Finally the
third and
forth layers are separated by air through a feed tube then sealed to give
elliptical or
semi-elliptical shape to the entire panel for maximum solar collection.
