Phase-change-storage dual-heat-source thermoelectric system for photovoltaic-diesel waste-heat complementation

Photovoltaic (PV) modules suffer from efficiency losses of 0.4–0.5% per °C temperature rise, while diesel engines discharge approximately 30% of fuel energy as exhaust waste heat, both issues remaining largely unaddressed in standalone systems. This study designed a dual-heat-sou...
