Energy Analysis and Exergy Optimization of Photovoltaic-Thermal Collector
A photovoltaic-thermal (PVT) collector is a solar-based micro-cogeneration system which generates simultaneously heat and power for buildings. The novelty of this paper is to conduct energy and exergy analysis on PVT collector performance under two ...

Effects of Dynamic Shading on Thermal Exergy and Exergy Efficiency of a Photovoltaic Array
In this study, the effects of dynamic shading caused by an incorrectly positioned transformer building in a Photovoltaic array were investigated regarding the exergy efficiency and thermal exergy for a year. Experimental and theoretical results show that the thermal exergy is affected by the surface temperature of solar panels depending on their ...

The Evaluation of Thermal Stratification by Exergy [PDF]
What makes a good heat store? Is it a large store, with a large volume? And is the largest the best? We experienced this question when the first solar houses were built: many stores were oversized and never reached temperatures high enough for heating.
