Abstract
The present invention relates to a novel ventilation structure for BIPV modules, which comprises photovoltaic modules matched with a building wall, the back of the photovoltaic modules is installed on the facade of the building wall in parallel through a plurality of steel columns, a ventilation gap is formed between the photovoltaic modules and the building wall, an air inlet passage for forming a constricted air inlet is transversely inserted in the bottom of the ventilation gap, and an air outlet chimney as an air outlet is longitudinally inserted in the top of the ventilation gap. The air duct between the photovoltaic modules and the building wall is modified, the natural convection in the ventilation gap can be accelerated to a high wind speed level similar to that of forced convection without requiring any mechanical fan device, enhancing the ventilation cooling of the BIPV modules without increasing power consumption.
