Abstract

Photovoltaic/Thermal (PV/T) module is considered to be one of the most recent technologies which offers harness and production of both electric and thermal energy. In the current study an energetic analysis is carried out to compare between four different configurations which are: the single pass single glazed (PV/T-I), the single pass double glazed with air gap (PV/T-II), the single pass double glazed with argon gap (PV/T-III) and the double pass double glazed (PV/T-IV) hybrid photovoltaic/Thermal air collector systems. A 3 dimensional numerical model is built up and validated with both the numerical and experimental results coming from the literature. The numerical simulations have been accomplished to investigate the energetic performance with a detailed thermal and electrical study taking in account an inlet coolant temperature the same as the ambient temperature for a coolant (air) mass flow rate equals to 0.025 kg/s of a typical day in August from 9:00 to 17:00 under the ambient conditions of Beijing, China. The results show that the single pass single glazed configuration has the highest electrical efficiency, whereas the double pass configuration has the greatest thermal and energy efficiencies among the proposed configurations. The average daily energy efficiencies are 53.14%, 75.92%, 77.63% and 82.19% for the (PV/T-I), (PV/T-II), (PV/T-III) and (PV/T-IV) configurations, respectively.
