Performance Analysis of Stacked Photovoltaic-Thermoelectric Generator Using Mathematical Thermal-Electrical Model 10325680 10325680 5 2023 This paper proposes an electrical-thermal model to evaluate the performance of often proposed PV-TEG stacked systems where the thermoelectric generator device is mounted on the back side of the PV cell. This way, the heat generated by the PV cell is collected by the surface area of the heat collector. The heat sink has been settled at the bottom of the thermoelectric generator device. Investigations were performed at different light concentration levels of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 suns. The efficiency of the thermoelectric generator increases with the light concentration due to the increasing in the temperature difference across its terminals. The results showed that the stacked system efficiency is decreasing with the increase of light concentration level and still lower than the efficiency of standalone illuminated PV cell. This is due to the high junction temperature which results in a decrease in the solar cell efficiency where the TEG device is still not able to compensate the decrease in the efficiency of the PV cell. It can be concluded that thermal coupling between the two devices has to be avoided to enable both devices to operate efficiently at their respective optimal operational temperatures. © 2023 IEEE. true false 2023 false true true true true false NONE 2026-05-23 false 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 false false false false 2023-12-21T11:32:53.844+0000 Elektronikus Eszközök Tanszéke (BME / VIK); Villamosmérnöki Tudományok Doktori Iskola (BME / EHBDT) 2 5 2 2 0 true true 10002 English /api/language/10002 Angol Language English true 2 false true 10003 true 10001 /api/country/10001 Country Hungary true 1 /api/city/10003 City Bp, Hungary true 10005024 true 25009370 DIFFERENT /api/publicationidentifier/25009370 https://doi.org/10.1109/THERMINIC60375.2023.10325898 10.1109/THERMINIC60375.2023.10325898 PublicationIdentifier DOI: 10.1109/THERMINIC60375.2023.10325898 true 6 DOI https://doi.org/@@@ /api/publicationsource/6 DOI PlainSource DOI true true 10001 /api/publicationsourcetype/10001 PublicationSourceType DOI true true 6 true false true 25011880 /api/publicationidentifier/25011880 https://www.worldcat.org/search?q=isbn%3A9798350318623 9798350318623 PublicationIdentifier ISBN: 9798350318623 true 122 ISBN https://www.worldcat.org/search?q=isbn%3A@@@ /api/publicationsource/122 ISBN PlainSource ISBN true true 10002 /api/publicationsourcetype/10002 PublicationSourceType Egyéb true false 122 true false true 25009369 DIFFERENT /api/publicationidentifier/25009369 http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/freeabs_all.jsp?arnumber=10325898 10325898 PublicationIdentifier IEEE Xplore: 10325898 true 22 http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/freeabs_all.jsp?arnumber=@@@ /api/publicationsource/22 IEEE Xplore PlainSource IEEE Xplore true true 10004 /api/publicationsourcetype/10004 PublicationSourceType Kiadói adatbázis true false 22 true false true 25136202 /api/publicationidentifier/25136202 https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10325898 https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10325898 PublicationIdentifier Other URL: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10325898 true 40 Other URL @@@ /api/publicationsource/40 Egyéb URL PlainSource Other URL true true 10006 /api/publicationsourcetype/10006 PublicationSourceType Link true true 40 true false /api/publication/34401813 Poppe András.
