Abstract

The described work involves the construction and experimental characterization of a new hybrid thermophotovoltaic prototype panel for small vessels and vehicles applications. The first prototype, previously numerically optimized by genetic algorythm, has been entirely built in the university lab in Forlì. Concerning the presented results, they show some of the last outdoor experimental analysis under specific site outdoor conditions. Subsequently the aim of this analysis has been to evaluate further improvements data concerning concept design in order to ensure for next prototypes the optimal integration of mechanical properties and specific output requirements requested by users.
