Measurement of the Convective Heat Transfer Coefficient and Temperature of Vehicle-Integrated Photovoltaic Modules

To improve the thermal design of vehicle-integrated photovoltaic (VIPV) modules, this study clarifies the characteristics of the convective heat transfer coefficient <i>h</i> between the vehicle roof surface and the surrounding air with respect to vehicle speed. Experiments on two types...
