Original Abstract

The intention of this study concerns the analysis of thermo-optical changes in a glass block system coupled with photovoltaic (PV) and phase change material (PCM). As solar simulators are considered key methodologies for conducting solar-based research under a well-controlled environment, this study employs small-scale solar simulator tests to reveal spectral and dynamic changes in a PV and PCM glass system. Therefore, the experimental setup was equipped with a spectrometer, and the spectral light transmittance data were obtained. This was also implemented for the dynamic transmittance analysis to characterize optical-responsive mechanisms in developing a semi-transparent system with PV and PCM. Though results revealed that spectral transmittance data provide a new insight subjected to PV and PCM characterization, certain limitations were drawn that the selection of light source is crucial, and the addition of a PV layer causes some specific problems to account for the edge transmittance effect.
