Solar one - The Delaware solar house and results obtained during the first year of operationThe design of a system which uses CdS/Cu2S solar cells to convert solar energy into electricity and heat, and which uses a heat pump for auxiliary heating and air conditioning is discussed. Salt hydrates are used for heat storage, while air serves as the heat transfer medium. The operational parameters and economic aspects of the system are examined, and preliminary test results are analyzed.
