Modeling of solar collectors and photovoltaic systems integrated with building assets

This study is within the framework of the promotion of solar energy, environmental protection and energy conservation. It is among the works that are intended for the use of solar energy for the production of energy to buildings by the use of photovoltaic and thermal hybrid collectors (photovoltaic/thermal). The finite volume method is used. Also, a change of coordinate is adopted to pass the physical space complex geometric configuration space simplest calculation. However, the model is developed it goes numerical investigation at the end of this study the effect of alternating the air flow and heat transfer inside the channel and analyze the performance and especially the brewing the outlet temperature and the cooling of the photovoltaic cells.
