where Ex PV / T represents exergy rate of PV/T, T c represents cell temperature, U t repre-
sents the overall heat transfer coefficient from solar cell to ambient through the glass
cover, h t represents the heat transfer coefficient from a black surface to air through
glass, T bs represents back surface temperature, U tb represents the overall heat trans-
fer coefficient from glass to black surface through solar cell, h ba represents the heat
transfer coefficient from black surface to air, T air represents temperature of air flowing
through the duct, and U b represents the overall heat transfer coefficient from bottom
