研究目的
To analyze and optimize the performance of a Building Integrated Photovoltaic Thermal (BIPVT) system, comparing its efficiency with normal PV systems and evaluating the impact of various parameters on its exergy and energy output.
研究成果
The BIPVT system shows improved efficiency over normal PV systems, with a maximum exergy efficiency of 18% achieved at an air velocity of 4.5 m/s and channel length of 0.2083 m. The system generates a total thermal energy of 54716 kWh and electrical energy of 15838 kWh annually. The study highlights the potential of BIPVT systems in enhancing energy efficiency and suggests further optimization for broader applications.
研究不足
The study is conducted under specific climatic conditions (cold climate of Srinagar in January), which may limit the generalizability of the findings to other climates. The optimization is based on a specific set of parameters (air velocity and channel length), and other factors may also influence system performance.
