Abstract

Investigations of a solar hybrid (photoelectric and thermal) collector were carried out on a specially constructed experimental rig. Measured current-voltage and thermal characteristics obtained at various modes of cooling of the hybrid collector are given. A mathematical model for evaluating temperatures of collector components was constructed. The efficiency of operation of the hybrid collector at various modes of cooling of the receiver was estimated.
