Parameters for an uncovered flat-plate PVT collector with rear cover and back-side thermal insulation

Information

This record contains anonymized thermal and electrical performance parameters for an uncovered photovoltaic–thermal (PVT) collector with rear insulation, tested under ISO 9806:2013 quasi-dynamic conditions. Thermal performance parameters correspond to operation of the PVT collector at maximum power point (MPP mode).

This datasheet is used in the validation of IDEAS.Fluid.PVTCollectors.PVTQuasiDynamicCollector, which can be found in the IDEAS.Fluid.PVTCollectors.Validation.PVT_UI package.
