        energy supply systems

Modulinhalte

This module gives an overview on renewable energy heat and photovoltaic technologies. Main focus hereby are the scientific principles of components and their technical description as well as first suitable system performance assessment methods.

Photovoltaics (Lecture: 90 h workload)

  • Basic and most important properties of solar radiation related to photovoltaics
  • PV cells basics: Fundamental physical processes in photovoltaic materials
  • Characterization and basic modelling of solar cells
  • Component Description: PV generator; Charge controller; Inverter; Balance of system components; System Description
  • Grid Connected System
  • Stand Alone System

Renewable Energy Heat (Seminar & Exercises: 90 h workload)

  • Assessment of solar thermal ambient parameters: regional global, diffuse, reflected solar radiation on horizontal and on tilted plane, ambient temperature
  • Solar thermal system components: collectors; heat exchangers; thermal storage; thermal driven compression chillers
  • Solar cooling systems and components
  • Characterization of solar thermal systems, their operation and performance
  • F-Chart and Utilizability methods as main methods for assessing system performance
