Recommended Standard for the Characterization and Monitoring of PV/Thermal Systems
November 2009 - PDF 0.92MB - Posted: 2012-04-30
By: Mike Collins, University of Waterloo, Canada and Herbert Zondag, ECN, Netherlands
Document Number: DB-2
This report covers the proposed practice to characterize and monitor PV/Thermal systems, and identifies and addresses the gaps that currently exist in characterization and monitoring activities. It details schemes for flat-plate style thermal collectors, but not PV/Thermal systems based on concentrating collectors.
