Experimental Analysis of PVT Panels for Industrial Applications

The proposed work involves the study and optimization through numerical and experimental analysis of a hybrid thermophotovoltaic panel for industrial applications. Starting from the numerical optimization of the profile of the heat sink obtained by genetic algorithms and taking into account the physical constraints and constructive problems, the aim is to develop and analyze new hybrid prototypes specifically designed. The prototype built always presents, as energy result, the combined thermal and electrical outputs but is designed to ensure the integration of construction, mechanical properties and specific functional requirements requested by industrial applications.
