Performance evaluation of PV-Trombe wall for sustainable building development
This paper presents, a detailed simulation model of a single room building integrated with PV Trombe wall (PV-TW). Performance is evaluated in terms of room temperature, cooling load and PV efficiency by varying the air flow velocity for three different PV-TW Glazing types (i.e. Single Glazing, Doub...

This paper presents, a detailed simulation model of a single room building integrated with PV Trombe wall (PV-TW). Performance is evaluated in terms of room temperature, cooling load and PV efficiency by varying the air flow velocity for three different PV-TW Glazing types (i.e. Single Glazing, Double glazing, Double glazing filled with gas (Argon)).

Reduction of mean air duct temperature results in lowering of PV cell temperature which enhances the efficiency of PV panel. Also maximum room temperature reduction was found while using a double glass filled with argon PV-TW, which further reduces thermal load of the building.
