摘要: Abstract This article presents a parametric study of concentrated photovoltaic co-generation (CPVC) system with an attached thermal storage tank. The CPVC utilized dual-axis tracker and multiple solar energy collector (SEC) modules forced cooling system. Each SEC module comprised 16 triple-junction cells, copper tube absorbers, Fresnel lenses were aligned against each cell. investigated all possible parameters that can affect the performance, including area, irradiation, inlet temperature, mass flow rate. surface area power increased by increasing number connected in series; however, electrical output decreased from first to fourth consecutively. At measured optimal rate, mixing diffusion tank decreased, total generation was increased. Variations outputs also observed when focal length lens changed. analysis enables obtain desired varying combination operational geometrical parameters.
