Hybrid photovoltaic–thermal system for simultaneous generation of power and hot water utilising mobiltherm as heat transfer fluid
The efficiency of photovoltaic (PV) cells, also called solar cells, is a function of temperature. It decreases at the rate of 0.5% K−1 above standard test conditions (STC) of 25°C. PV or solar cells have the capability of attaining a temperature of 50–60°C with insolation above STC. The objective of...
