Challenges in BiPV/PCM Facade System: Pathways Towards Numerical Modelling and Simulation Approaches

Original language description

Simulation modelling of heat andmass transfer processes is conducted in the case of a special type of a building integrated photovoltaic (BiPV) facade system with latent thermal energy storage (LTES) based on a phase change material (PCM). Experimental and simulation models are developed as part of the ventilated facade system for it to analyze and verify the adequacy of the available simulation tools. The key aspect of a BiPV/PCM facade concept is focused on reducing the peak operating temperatures of the PV modules and affecting actionreaction processes involving heat and mass transfer changes inside the facade elements. Experimental measurements were performed using an outdoor test cell to verify and validate numerical models. Acomparative investigation of two facade concepts (BiPV, BiPV/PCM) is conducted using two simulation domains: the BES method (EnergyPlus) and the numerical CFD method (Ansys). The heat transfer rate through all facade elements is influenced by the high thermal inertia of the PCM differently in the diurnal/nocturnal period. The dynamic thermal response function of this facade system changes concerning the climate conditions at a small timescale (reactivity). The experimental measurements and simulation results are compared for it to provide an insight into consistency between the theoretical results and the experimental data. However, this indicates several limitations that need to be properly identified for further design.
