Evaluation and optimization of the performance and efficiency of a hybrid flat plate solar collector integrated with phase change material and heat sink

This study presents an experimental real case study on the performance optimization of a flat plate solar collector (FPSC) by integrating a layer of phase change material (PCM) and a heat sink. The system was tested under the semi-arid climatic conditions of Abha, Saudi Arabia. Based on preliminary...
