Abstract: A novel PV/T（Photovoltaic/Thermal）solar collector integrating double glass photovoltaic modules（DGPM）was designed.The photo-thermal conversion and transmission characteristics of such novel collector were studied. Two PV/T collector prototypes,of which the DGPM transmittance was respectively 50% and 10%,were prepared and comparatively analyzed by experiments. The results showed that for PV/T solar collector with transmittance of 50%,the temperature of heat absorber plate was higher than that of DGPM;while for PV/T solar collector with transmittance of 10%,the temperature of heat absorber plate was lower than that of DGPM. In addition,the collector system with transmittance of 50% transmittance collector system had better practicability,with the output air temperature reaching 91℃,the daily thermal efficiency reaching 49.2% and the solar cells output efficiency up to 9.5%. The experimental results are consistent with the theoretical analysis results. The study provides a reference for optimum design of PV/T solar collector.
