Cooling characteristics of composite panel with photovoltaic - thermo modules

摘要

Composite panel wit photovoltaic - thermo modules is radiant of cooling and heating panel which driven by solar energy as clean energy. The radiation panel for heating and cooling is a new air conditioning system. This panel directly exchanges thermal energy between the panel and human bodies by electromagnetic wave. In this study, the prototyped has been designed and tested for cooling mode of operation in summer season. And, we have developed the simulation program for radiation panel for cooling which is driven by e output power of photovoltaic module. As a result, when two photovoltaic modules in parallel of 12W are connected, the average of temperature difference between air and the cooling panel was 8.1℃ during June to September in Tokyo. It is found that this panel is useful panel as radiant of cooling and heating one.
