Abstract
A hybrid photovoltaic thermal (PVT) system including flexible integration of spectral splitting optical filtration and thermal management utilities is described. An optical filtration (OF) channel is provided above a PV panel of the hybrid PVT system, wherein an OF fluid in the OF channel transmits a first light that is within a predefined spectral range and absorbs a second light that is outside the predefined spectral range. A cooling fluid (CF) channel is provided below the PV panel, wherein the CF channel contains a cooling fluid. A phase change material (PCM) layer is provided between the PV panel and the CF channel, wherein at least one of the OF fluid in the OF channel, the cooling fluid in the CF channel, or the PCM layer contains nanoparticles.
