摘要
In this paper, overall thermal energy and exergy analysis has been carried out for different configurations of hybrid photovoltaic thermal (PVT) array. The hybrid PVT array (10.08 m x 2.16 m) is a series and parallel combinations of 36 numbers of PV modules. A one-dimensional transient model for hybrid PVT array has been developed using basic heat transfer equations. On the basis of this transient model, an attempt has been made to select an appropriate hybrid PVT array for different climatic conditions (Bangalore, Jodhpur, New Delhi, and Srinagar) of India. On the basis of high grade energy (i.e. overall exergy gain), case-III has been selected as the most appropriate configuration because overall exergy for case-III is 12.9% higher than case-II. The overall thermal energy and exergy gain for Bangalore is 4.54 x 10(4) kW h and 2.07 x 10(4) kW h respectively which is highest in comparison to the other cities. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd.
