Numerical Analysis of Hybrid Collector PV/T

The Hybrid Photovoltaic thermal solar panel (PV/T) offers an interesting option now; because the absorbed solar radiation is converted into heat and power (conversion can be performed separately or simultaneously). The aim of our work is to make a dynamic study of a cell of a hybrid photovoltaic thermal solar collector PV/ T using the ANSYS Workbench v.15 Software for predicting a prototype realization of this system. The results suggest that this type of collector is a good alternative to conventional photovoltaic modules and thermal collectors installed separately.
