Evaluating the Thermal and Electrical Performance of Several Uncovered PVT Collectors with a Field Test

In this paper, we will describe the experimental outdoor field test facility used for measuring the electrical and thermal performance. Furthermore, the results of the steady state analysis and typical collector curves are presented. In the next phase of the project, results of this field test will be used for dynamic simulations of the annual electrical and thermal energy yields for typical system designs and heat loads in the Netherlands.
