Abstract

The performance of hybrid photovoltaic thermal solar collector system at Duhok city for “29th” April and April month is experimentally investigated with an area of (0.864 m2) to cover the hot water, space heating and electrical loads for a home with an area of 100 m2 consists of 4 persons.The electrical production is effected by the panel temperature, and the thermal and electrical energy productions are proportional with the insolation. The cover glass has an effect on the electrical and thermal energy productions. The produced thermal energy is about 3 times of the electrical energy production. The electrical load during the specified duration is covered using 21 m2 of photovoltaic area. The thermal load includes hot water demand and space heating demand for the home. The hot water demand can be covered using 2 m2 of the collector area, the remaining collector area is be covered the space heating demand. The cost of the system may be getting back during 10 years with using the payback method.
