Solar Fusion Garage Heater



While many people do have electricity in their own garages and sheds, heat can be a serious issue throughout cold season.

However you can take advantage of the sunny days of winter and use solar power from the sun to produce heat in your garage. Especially if you live in mountainous or hilly areas, where the sun can reflect the suns rays as you could build a solar garage heater to collect some of that sunshine that bounces off the snow or that just beams down. Solar powered fusion furnaces have in the past recorded to reach temperatures of up to 110 degrees.

Solar Energy

Solar energy, or heat, is radiation produced by nuclear fission deep within the core of the sun. Solar heat travels to Earth through space via photons, or packets of energy. Our atmosphere and clouds absorb much of this heat, and the energy varies with the time of day and the season. 1.4 kilowatts per square meter is considered to be the solar constant; any substantial change in this wattage would alter or even end life on Earth.

We can make good use of the solar heat that we collect. Primarily, we can tap into solar power stored in water by directing the flowing water through turbines, thus creating hydroelectric power. Since plants are living solar fusion heaters via the process of photosynthesis, we can use a plant’s stored solar energy through natural fuels such as wood, alcohol and methane.

To make solar energy work for us, we’ ve devised two ways of capturing and using this source of power.  Flat plate collectors and concentrating collectors need large surfaces exposed to the sun to create solar heaters of any purpose. For example, to use the sun’ s energy to power a home solar heater for one day requires a collector surface as big as a two-car garage.

The future of solar heaters is very exciting! As we grow more proficient in using the sun as an energy source, we could eliminate the need for gasoline-powered autos. We could also generate solar heaters on a large scale. As solar science progresses, we will see government, industry and utility companies forming partnerships to reduce the cost of solar collectors. Imagine: a world without reliance on oil.
