The performance of PV (photovoltaic) module is strongly dependent on its operating temperature. Most of the energy absorbed by the panel is converted to heat which is normally lost and provides no value. In order to study the performance of a hybrid PV water cooled system, a numerical model (electrical and thermal) is developed using EES (Engineering Equation Solver) software. The model predicts various...
Concentrating solar photovoltaic (PV) cells seems to be the most viable method to reduce the cost of the direct conversion of solar radiation to electricity. A non-imaging concentrator, namely Compound Parabolic Concentrator (CPC) with a flat receiver is considered in this research to compose concentrating photovoltaic cells. CPC requires intermittent tracking and has large acceptance angle to receive...
This paper describes the potential of the development of a seawater desalination system that combines the technologies of reverse osmosis (RO) and photovoltaic (PV) to deliver 100m 3 /day of sweet water. Silicon cells are chosen for the PV array and the polyamide thin-film composite seawater Filmtec membranes are selected for the RO system. The software ROSA is adopted to study the influences...
