Evaluation of photovoltaic thermal system performance with different nanoparticle sizes via energy, exergy, and irreversibility analysis
The PVT system efficiency generally depends on diverse factors, such as design parameters, solar radiation intensity, and the concentration and type of nanofluid, among other major factors. The present work focuses on the effect of nanoparticle size on a nanofluid-based PVT collector system with a spiral-flow absorber. Besides nanoparticle size, the system is experimentally investigated at various flow rates, nanoparticle concentrations, and different working conditions. Moreover, PV efficiency is also calculated and compared with thermal efficiency by employing both energy and exergy analyses. The rate of exergy loss in PVT is calculated in order to provide a appropriate understanding of the key factors that affect the overall performance of such systems. The most important factor significantly affecting the PVT net efficiencies is the absorber outlet temperature, which illustrates the trade-off between the temperature increase and the increase of the potential concentration factor.
期刊介绍:
Case Studies in Thermal Engineering provides a forum for the rapid publication of short, structured Case Studies in Thermal Engineering and related Short Communications. It provides an essential compendium of case studies for researchers and practitioners in the field of thermal engineering and others who are interested in aspects of thermal engineering cases that could affect other engineering processes. The journal not only publishes new and novel case studies, but also provides a forum for the publication of high quality descriptions of classic thermal engineering problems. The scope of the journal includes case studies of thermal engineering problems in components, devices and systems using existing experimental and numerical techniques in the areas of mechanical, aerospace, chemical, medical, thermal management for electronics, heat exchangers, regeneration, solar thermal energy, thermal storage, building energy conservation, and power generation. Case studies of thermal problems in other areas will also be considered.
