Evaluation of Photovoltaic Thermal Module (PVT) Performance in Kampong Chheuteal Institute of Technology Campus in Kampong Thom province
—
by
Photovoltaic thermal modules (PVT) are devices that can convert solar radiation to electricity and hot water. PVTs have been proposed as a renewable source for rural areas in Cambodia. In this study, we evaluated the performance of PVT modules in the Kampong Chheuteal Institute of Technology (KCIT) campus in Kampong Thom province. A mathematical model…

Numerical Study of Phase Change Material-Water Storage on Photovoltaic Thermal Module Performance
—
by
Use of phase change material (PCM) in water storage tank to generate tempera-ture stratification that could enhance performance of photovoltaic thermal (PVT) module was investigated by numerical simulation. A commercial PCM, filled in a set of 40 mm diameter spherical capsules contained in a 200-liter water storage tank was used and the storage was integrated…
