Temperature regulation of polycrystalline silicon photovoltaic panels with movable thermal energy storage units filled with phase change materials

This paper presents an experimental study to evaluate the improvement of photovoltaic (PV) performance through temperature regulation of a commercial polycrystalline silicon PV panel, by placing a movable thermal energy storage (TES) unit filled with a free-form commercial paraffin-based PCM (RT22HC...
