    摘要: A solar window system for a building includes multiple heat generation encasements each including thermoelectric sheets, where the thermoelectric sheets are positioned inside a housing having an interior metal layer. Air inside each heat generation encasement is heated by solar energy. Inside each heat generation encasement, there are pipes filled with Phase-Change Material (PCM) materials that help provide heating to the building. The solar window system further includes a storage tank on top of the system filled with PCM materials for storing heat from the heated air, the storage tank being connected to the pipes of each heat generation encasement. The solar window system includes a set of connection pipes, wherein the set of connection pipes draw cold air from an indoor space inside the building into the plurality of heat generation encasements, connect each of the heat generation encasements to at least two other heat generation encasements, and transfer the heated air from the set of heat generation encasements to the storage tank. The solar window system also includes circular movable rings that can be open and closed as needed. These rings are located around each heat generation encasement and have two movable flexible solar panels capable of generating electricity.
