Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsExperimental Investigation of Single Pass, Double Duct Photovoltaic Thermal (PV/T) Air Collector with CPC and FinsM. Ebrahim Ali Alfegi, Kamaruzzaman Sopian, Mohd Yusof Hj Othman, Baharudin Bin YatimThe temperature of photovoltaic modules increases when it absorbs solar radiation, causing a decrease in efficiency. This undesirable effect can be partially avoided by applying a heat recovery unit with fluid circulation (air or water) with the photovoltaic module. Such unit is called photovoltaic/thermal collector (pv/t) or hybrid (pv/t). An experimental investigation of a solar air heater with photovoltaic cell … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 6,987 accessesView PDFCite
