Abstract
Performance of concentrating photovoltaic/thermal system is researched by experiment and simulation calculation. The results show that the I–V curve of the GaAs cell array is better than that of crystal silicon sola rcell arrays and the exergy produced by 9.51% electrical efficiency of the GaAs solar cell array can reach 68.93% of the photovoltaic/thermal system. So improving the efficiency of solar cell arrays can introduce more exergy and the system value can be upgraded. At the same time, affecting factors of solar cell arrays such as series resistance, temperature and solar irradiance also have been analyzed. The output performance of a solar cell array with lowerseries resistance is better and the working temperature has a negative impact on the voltage in concentrating light intensity. The output power has a –20 W/V coefficient and so cooling fluid must be used. Both heat energy and electrical power are then obtained with a solar trough concentrating photovoltaic/thermal system. -
