Özet

© 2022 University of Split, FESB.Solar energy has the most significant potential for power-producing systems. Profiteering this kind of renewable energy has got a considerable concern. The utilization of such renewable energy sources can minimize atmospheric pollutants (the leading cause of climate change). Researchers have investigated different designs and equipment to utilize the (Photovoltaic) PV modules temperature. The PV module's electricity generation is negatively affected by rising PV module temperature. As a solution, a (Photovoltaic/thermal) PV/T system provides heat gain and improves electrical efficiency via cooling the PV module. Many applications have considered the achievement of the best electrical and thermal performances. The current status of the hybrid PV/T solar collector system and methods such as using simulation approaches of their performances were included. The review highlighted some points, such as the solar energy gain, the layout of the bifluid-based PV/T system, and more applications of such a bifluid system. Electrical and thermal efficiencies of 17% and 76%, respectively, were achieved in the literature through the use of bifluid-based PV/ T systems. Furthermore, using PV/ T bifluid systems as an alternative to the conventional power-producing sources deals with solving the problem of atmospheric pollution; not only this, but the economic analysis has performed satisfactory results. Applications of bifluid-based PV/T systems are broad, including green-house, drying processes, building integrated systems, etc. These applications are recommended based on the satisfying results of electrical and thermal energies gained.
