Trombe wall

T5412800 (trômb, trŏmb, trôNb)n. A thick, usually masonry wall faced with glass or other transparent material over an intervening air space, designed to absorb solar radiation and release heat slowly to the air, which circulates throughout the building by convection.

[After Félix Trombe (1906-1985), French chemist and inventor.]

Trombe wall

Consists of an 8- to 16-inch thick masonry wall on the south side of a house. A single or double layer of glass is mounted about 1 inch or less in front of the wall’s surface. Solar heat is absorbed by the wall’s dark-colored outside surface and stored in the wall’s mass, where it radiates into the living space. Also referred to as a solar wall.

Trombe wall

A passive solar-energy thermal storage device used in houses. Consists of a thermal storage wall, usually of masonry or concrete, 8 to 16 in. (20 to 40 cm) thick, that is coated with a dark heat-absorptive material; and a glass skin, placed in front of the wall that leaves an air space ³/4 in. to 6 in. (2 cm to 15 cm) between the wall and the glass. Solar energy that strikes the glass is absorbed by the wall during the day and released to the house during the evening.
