Performance characteristics of a photovoltaic panel integrated with PCM packed cylindrical tubes for cooling

The effect of an increasing volume of the phase change material (PCM) and large heat transfer area have been assessed for controlling the higher surface temperature of the photovoltaic (PV) module which influences conversion efficiency and power output. For this, a bed of multi-cylindrical copper tu...
