Title: Phase-change materials to improve solar panel's performance.
Authors: Biwole, Pascal Henry1,2 pascalbi@yahoo.fr, Eclache, Pierre3,4, Kuznik, Frederic3,4
Source: Energy & Buildings. Jul2013, Vol. 62, p59-67. 9p.
Subjects: Energy conservation in buildings, Phase change materials, Building-integrated photovoltaic systems, Performance evaluation, Navier-Stokes equations, Low temperatures, Environmental engineering of buildings
Abstract: Highlights: [•] A volume force was added to the buoyancy term in the Navier–Stokes’ momentum conservation equation. [•] Using PCM kept panel temperature under 40°C for 80min under radiation of 1000W/m2. [•] Adding cooling fins does not always help maintaining the panels’ temperature low. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
