... to determine the overall energy efficiency of the PVT panel under different climatic conditions. The results reveal that the overall energy efficiency of the proposed PVT panel, on a typical day, is approximately 45%, significantly outperforming traditional PV panels by more than double. Furthermore...

...) on various energetic, exergetic, and economic performances is investigated. Radish chips were dried to extract moisture from 92.4% to 11.9%. Energy efficiency and drying efficiency (DE) are estimated higher for a lower intermittency ratio. The moisture extraction rate (MER) and the specific moisture...
