Simulation of edge effects in thermophotovoltaic efficiency by Monte Carlo calculation

Thermophotovoltaic (TPV) is one of the efficient ways that convert heat to electricity. The high-temperature emitter emits infrared photons omnidirectionally, and the view factor would be very larger compared with photovoltaic. This means that the effect of non-normal incidence will be very signific...
