The current study assesses several water-based PVT system thermal absorber configurations. in plays a vital role efficiency evaluation as it lowers PV temperature and collects heat energy. aims to discover analyze advanced design by comparing well-received spiral circular absorbers non-cooled with proposed semi-circular varying flow maintains surface contact panels improves transfer thereby yielding better electrical efficiency. Simulated systems have constant water rate solar radiation. CFD-FLUENT software was preferred evaluate the steady-state conditions for investigation. Under ambient inlet temperatures of 299 K, at surface, discharge temperature, pressure drop were measured. It discovered that could effectively lower cooling.
