Photovoltaic (PV) panels convert a portion of the incident solar radiation into electrical
energy and the remaining energy (> 70%) is mostly converted into thermal energy. This …

The commercial solar cells are currently less efficient in converting solar radiation into
electricity. During electric power convention, most of the absorbed energy is dissipated to …

Photovoltaic (PV) modules are one of the most effective, sustainable, and ecofriendly
systems. Only a small portion of solar irradiation incident to these modules is converted into …

In this research, the effects of using nanofluid as a coolant on the thermal and electrical
efficiencies of a PV/T (photovoltaic thermal unit) are experimentally studied. Coolant fluids in …

The electrical efficiency of photovoltaic (PV) cell is adversely affected by the significant
increase of cell operating temperature during absorption of solar radiation. A hybrid …

A photovoltaic/thermal (PVT) hybrid solar system is a combination of photovoltaic (PV) and
solar thermal components/systems which produce both electricity and heat from one …

In this study, machine learning methods of artificial neural networks (ANNs), least squares
support vector machines (LSSVM), and neuro-fuzzy are used for advancing prediction …

Photovoltaic (PV) cells can absorb up to 80% of the incident solar radiation available in the
solar spectrum, however, only a certain percentage of the absorbed incident energy is …
