Performance Analysis of a Combination System of Concentrating Photovoltaic/Thermal Collector and Thermoelectric Generators
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Thermoelectric (TE) modules utilize available temperature differences to generate electricity by the Seebeck effect. The current study investigates the merits of employing thermoelectrics to harvest additional electric ...
Thermal Modeling and Life Prediction of Water Cooled Hybrid Concentrating Photovoltaic/Thermal Collectors
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, a multiphysics, finite element computational model for a hybrid concentrating photovoltaic/thermal (CPV/T) water collector is developed. The collector consists of a solar concentrator, 18 single junction ...
