Abstract:Cooling the operating surface is a key operational factor to take into consideration to achieve higher efficiency when operating solar photovoltaic systems. Appropriate cooling may improve the electrical efficiency and decrease the rate of cell degradation with time, resulting in maximization of the life span of photovoltaic modules. The excessive heat removed by the cooling system can be used in domestic, commercial or industrial applications. The hybrid photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) system cooled by forced wat… Show more
