خصوصیات عملکرد تجربی یک ماژول فوتوولتائیک هیبرید خورشیدی / فاز حرارتی خورشیدی در مقایسه با یک تخت واحد مجتمع ذخیره سازی خورشیدی ماژول بخاری

The experimental performance of HyPV/T unit has been determined and compared with a flat Integrated Collector Storage Solar Water Heater (ICSSWH) under constant indoor solar simulated conditions. The daily thermal collection efficiencies for the ‘traditional’ flat ICSSWH units performed better than the unglazed HyPV/T, by 5–10%. However, when the additional electrical power produced by the HyPV/T is included, the overall system collection efficiencies are more equal. The heat retention performance shows that's the unglazed (bare) ICS unit had a retention efficiency of 8.3% whilst the ICS unit with a single transparent cover was 23.6% and double glazed unit was 28%. The HyPV/T heat retention efficiencies were approximately 65% over the same cool-down period.
