Modeling and analysis of thermal photovoltaic energy generator using COMSOL multiphysics

Because of to their versatile energy choice alternatives, immovable elements, and opportunity for effective energy generation, thermophotovoltaic techniques have a vast range of achievable applications. For illustration, these devices could help us to offer convenient energy. Nevertheless, first enhance the performance of thermo-photovoltaic cell unit devices along with decrease system costs and system temperatures. To achieve such objectives, we use simulation to evaluate and improve their thermo-photovoltaic cell unit models.
This research regarded as the different alternatives of enhancing system operation via successful deal with the operating circumstances. It examined solutions of the system formation for much better system performance and energy output and at bare minimum quantity working expenses. The number of mirrors and photovoltaic devices for employ in the construction had been set at eight as traditional for the procedure. A novel energy technique was constructed and was used to reproduce the energy effectiveness of the thermal photo voltaic modules. The boundaries situations utilized for the materials involved were defined and the appropriate physics utilized in the analysis of various operating circumstances that affected the system effectiveness.
It is possible to reduce the costs of PV systems by using small area PV cells, which require some special mirrors to focus radiation onto photocells. Based on COMSOL Multiphysics (version 5.5) as a commercial FEM package, this paper develops a basic thermo-photovoltaic cell unit model. A variety of options examined for optimizing the operation of the system by controlling operating conditions effectively. For a two-dimensional system, it was demonstrated the correct physics to apply when studying various operating conditions which affected system performance.
