Numerical and ensemble machine learning-based investigation of the energy and exergy yields of a concentrating photovoltaic thermal device equipped with a perforated twisted tube turbulator
The current research was carried out with the aim of numerically investigating the effect of employing a perforated twisted tube turbulator on the energy and exergy yields of a concentrating photovoltaic thermal (PVT) device. The simulations were performed in 4 different Reynolds numbers (Re) (i.e....

The current research was carried out with the aim of numerically investigating the effect of employing a perforated twisted tube turbulator on the energy and exergy yields of a concentrating photovoltaic thermal (PVT) device.

Among the examined cases, the best and worst performance belonged to the PVT device with perforated turbulator and without a turbulator, respectively. For the PVT device with non-perforated turbulator, the lowest PV panel temperature, the highest water outlet temperature, and the highest energy and exergy efficiencies occurred at the highest Re (i.e. 2000) and the lowest TD (i.e. L/100).
