Scientists in Iran have designed a CPV system that integrates a paraffin-based nanomaterials cooling system with fin, as well as thermoelectric generators that turns wast heat into electricity.

Researchers from the Middle East have simulated a novel PV thermal module which includes a thermoelectric generator above the absorber layer, conical helical tape in the cooling tube and a ferrofluid.

A team of engineers and material scientists in the Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical Engineering at CU Boulder has developed a new technology to turn thermal radiation into electricity in a way ...
