Abstract Photovoltaic-thermal (PV/T) technology, combines the benefits of both solar
photovoltaic (PV) and solar thermal systems into a single integrated solution. It is a …

Common glass without spectral regulation effect cannot offer an energy‐saving function, and
radiative cooling technology without visible transparency cannot satisfy the illumination and …

The imperative of solar-driven methodologies, harnessing the virtually boundless power of
sunlight, cannot be overstated in our battle against climate change and the imperative to …

A numerical technique is applied to study the efficacy of integrating twisted tapes to the
collector of Photovoltaic/Thermal (PV/T) units on the system performance when the tubes …

Cooling photovoltaics (PV) matters since elevated temperature reduces efficiency and
lifetime, but it is a great challenge when simultaneously pursuing effective cooling, low …

In this study, an enhanced passive solid-liquid phase change strategy based on the phase
change material (PCM) and bifurcated fractal fins was developed for the thermal control of …

In traditional photovoltaic heat pumps, the photovoltaic (PV) cells and condenser would
hinder each other's heat dissipation in the reverse cooling mode, resulting in a drop in both …

This work investigates the techno-economic performance of a hybrid photovoltaic-thermal
(PVT) solar-assisted heat-pump system for covering the electrical and hot-water demands of …

The use of porous media in heat transfer systems leads to a rise in the heat transfer surface
area and pressure loss of the working fluid, the first of which is desirable and the second is …
