Validation of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Model of a Building Integrated Photovoltaic/Thermal (BIPV/T) System

View through CrossRef
<p>A building integrated photovoltaic/thermal (BIPV/T) system was studied using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The BIPV/T system was composed of solar photovoltaic (PV) panels mounted in front of a wall/roof with an air channel in between. A numerical model was developed consisting of a PV layer, an air channel, and an insulation and plywood layer. Experiments were conducted by the Solar Simulator Laboratory at Concordia University using three different orientations of 0 degrees, 45 degrees and 90 degrees at two different flow rates. A comparison of the temperatures profiles between the numerical predictions and the experimental data is presented. Overall, the numerical results were in good agreement with the experimental data.<a href="https://www-webofscience-com.myaccess.library.utoronto.ca/wos/woscc/general-summary?queryJson=[{" target="_blank"><u><strong>BIPV/T</strong></u></a><a href="https://www-webofscience-com.myaccess.library.utoronto.ca/wos/woscc/general-summary?queryJson=[{" target="_blank"><strong>Numerical Modelling</strong></a><a href="https://www-webofscience-com.myaccess.library.utoronto.ca/wos/woscc/general-summary?queryJson=[{" target="_blank"><strong>Computational Fluid Dynamics</strong></a><a href="https://www-webofscience-com.myaccess.library.utoronto.ca/wos/woscc/general-summary?queryJson=[{" target="_blank"><strong>Mixed Convection</strong></a></p>
