Numerical Investigation And Performance Analysis Of Photovoltaic Thermal PV/T Absorber Designs: A Comparative Study

The term of PV/T refers to the solar energy system which is associate the photovoltaic and solar collector with each other in order to improve the photovoltaic efficiency. This system generates both thermal and electrical energy simultaneously. The aim of this work is to investigate numerically and...
