Journal Article
Li, W., Paul, M. C., Sellami, N., Sweet, T., Montecucco, A., Siviter, J., Baig, H., Gao, M., Mallick, T., & Knox, A. (2016). Six-parameter electrical model for photovoltaic cell/module with compound parabolic concentrator. Solar Energy, 137, 551-563. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.solener.2016.08.050

It is known that compound parabolic concentrators (CPCs) can improve electrical performance of a photovoltaic (PV) flat-plate system. However, a lumped electrical model of a PV cell/module with CPC for assessing performance under different operating...

A novel absorptive/reflective solar concentrator for heat and electricity generation: An optical and thermal analysis. Energy Conversion and Management, 114, 142-153

The crossed compound parabolic concentrator (CCPC) is one of the most efficient non-imaging solar concentrators used as a stationary solar concentrator or as a second stage solar concentrator. In this study, the CCPC is modified to demonstrate for th... Read More about A novel absorptive/reflective solar concentrator for heat and electricity generation: An optical and thermal analysis.
