研究目的
The present study analyzed the potential of producing energy from PV/T systems in the greenhouse production sector, focusing on different greenhouse coverings (glass, plastic, and polycarbonate) and the use of PV/T systems inside greenhouses to investigate their effect on energy parameters and output power.
研究成果
The study concluded that the PV/T system's performance is significantly affected by the type of greenhouse covering and the water mass flow rate. The highest overall efficiency was achieved with glass covering at a flow rate of 0.033 kg/s. The use of a solar tracker improved electrical efficiency but had a minimal effect on thermal efficiency. The findings suggest that PV/T systems can be a viable solution for meeting the electrical and thermal energy needs of greenhouses.
研究不足
The study was conducted in a small-scale greenhouse, and the results may vary in larger or differently structured greenhouses. The effect of shadows from the greenhouse structure on the PV panels was noted as a limitation affecting the electrical efficiency.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study analyzed the performance of a PV/T system installed inside a greenhouse under three different types of glazing (glass, plastic, and polycarbonate) at four flow rates (0.016, 0.025, 0.033 kg/s, and no-flow) with two configurations (with and without solar tracker).
