Abstract
The performance and deterioration of solar photovoltaic cells are significantly influenced by the
temperature of the solar cell. Numerous academics and manufacturers have studied the relationship
between solar cell temperature and photovoltaic module efficiency. The merging of solar photovoltaic
and solar thermal is attempted in this study. The study has been focused on developing an optical filter
that uses water as an optical filter to integrate solar photovoltaic modules with solar thermal systems.
The system has undergone research and fabrication. In compared to a single solar module, the PV/T
system has a better efficiency and lower photovoltaic module temperature. The input temperature,
ambient temperature, solar radiation, relative humidity, wind speed, flow rate, and other factors all affect
how efficient a PV/T system is. The research has chosen input temperature, solar radiation, and ambient
temperature out of a variety of characteristics. In order to prevent hot spots on the photovoltaic module,
the research of concentrating PV/T system with water-based optical filter for the concentration of solar
rays V-trough has been employed in this work
Keywords
