文摘The application of PV facades emerges greatly in recent years and however its calculation methods and analysis remains insufficient under the weather conditions of China. In such demand, this paper investigates PV facade in terms of PV electricity generation in different arrangements and weather conditions of four major cities in China. The calculation models for PV facade are developed and validated by comparing the results with the measured data from the field experiments. A parametric study is carried out to provide a reference for the optimal design of the PV facades. The results show that with various cities, building orientations, building forms, materials and arrangements of PV modules, there is a distinct difference in the electrical output energy of PV facades. Weather conditions nlav a very important role in terms of PV generation nerformance of PV facades.
