Experimental Study on the Effect of Zigzag Configuration of Paraffin Wax-Filled Aluminum Containers on the Thermal Performance of a Photovoltaic Thermal System
The performance of photovoltaic (PV) panels decreases significantly as operating temperatures rise. To mitigate this, forced-air cooling is often employed, but fluctuating outdoor solar radiation makes the integration of phase change materials (PCM) essential for effective heat regulation. This study experimentally eva...
