Analysis on the performance of photovoltiac/thermal solar system

Abstract

The paper proposes an experiment table of the PVT system and analyzes the thermoelectric properties of PVT module and PVT system. According to energy conservation law, mathematical model of the system is established, temperature distribution of module and system can be calculated. And then thermal efficiency, electrical efficiency and overall efficiency is obtained. The results show that solar radiation intensity is the critical factor that affects the performance of the PV/T system.
