Using COMSOL to simulate the transmittance of PV-VG
With the gradual deterioration of the environment and the depletion of natural energy,energy-saving and environment-friendly green building materials are considered as important development direction in many countries.In addition to the substantially reducing in building materials,the use of photovoltaic vacuum glazing(PV-VG)in buildings will lead to a gradual reduction in energy consumption/operating costs and carbon dioxide emissions.In this paper,the transmittance of a photovoltaic vacuum glazing is simulated.In addition to transparent conductive glazing and aerogel,there are three functional films: TiO2 nanocrystalline photocatalytic film,amorphous/microcrystalline silicon film and Low-e film are applied.TiO2 film has the advantages of high catalytic activity,good chemical stability,and self-cleaning of glazing.Amorphous/microcrystalline silicon films can absorb infrared light and visible light partially to generate electricity.The low-e film can reflect the infrared light that is not absorbed by the photovoltaic layer.At the same time,it can also block far-infrared rays,thereby enhancing the thermal insulation of glazing.During the simulation process,the geometrical optics physical module of Comsol software is used to study the ray tracing,as well as a series of settings such as geometry structure,material,and dielectric properties that established the permance and ray release range of photovoltaic vacuum glazing.In the simulation,the incident light has a wavelength in the range of 400nm to 800nm.Finally,the absorption coefficient and transmittance of different films were obtained.
