Effect of flow distribution on the photovoltaic performance of a building integrated photovoltaic/thermal (BIPV/T) collector
Ghani, Faisal Abid; Duke, Mike; Carson, James K. (Elsevier, 2012)The phenomenon of non-uniform flow distribution and its influence on thermal performance within a traditional solar thermal collector is well known. Its effect on the photovoltaic conversion of a hybrid photovoltaic/thermal ... -
Estimation of photovoltaic conversion efficiency of a building integrated photovoltaic/thermal (BIPV/T) collector array using an artificial neural network
Ghani, Faisal Abid; Duke, Mike; Carson, James K. (Elsevier, 2012)Earlier studies have shown that the thermal efficiency of a solar thermal collector is influenced by the quality of coolant flow distribution within the array. The quality of flow distribution within a header/riser type ... -
Investigation into the effects of flow distribution on the photovoltaic performance of a building integrated photovoltaic/thermal solar collector
Ghani, Faisal Abid (University of Waikato, 2013)The conversion of solar energy into usable forms of energy such as electricity and heat is attractive given the abundance of solar energy and the numerous issues recently raised in the consumption of fossil fuels. Solar ... -
Numerical calculation of series and shunt resistance of a photovoltaic cell using the Lambert W-function: Experimental evaluation
Ghani, Faisal Abid; Duke, Mike; Carson, James K. (Elsevier, 2013)The values of series and shunt resistances play an important role in the modelling behaviour of a photovoltaic cell. The authors proposed in earlier work a new method to determine these values numerically at maximum power ... -
Numerical calculation of series and shunt resistances and diode quality factor of a photovoltaic cell using the Lambert W-function
Ghani, Faisal Abid; Duke, Mike; Carson, James K. (Elsevier, 2013)A number of methods currently exist to determine the modeling parameters of a solar cell. The authors presented in earlier a work a method to numerically determine the values of series and shunt resistance using the Lambert ...
