METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR TEMPERATURE REGULATION DEVICES

摘要

A heat exchanger for coupling to a device is described. The heat exchanger includes an inner layer configured for placement against at least one surface of the device, an outer layer opposite the inner layer, a fluid chamber defined between the outer layer and the inner layer, an inlet for directing a thermal transfer fluid into the fluid chamber, an outlet for receiving the thermal transfer fluid from the fluid chamber, and at least one filler within the fluid chamber. The filler is coupled to the outer layer and the inner layer and configured to control a flow of the thermal transfer fluid between the inlet and the outlet.

1. A photovoltaic (PV) module comprising:
a solar panel comprising a top surface and a bottom surface; a heat exchanger in thermal communication with the bottom surface of the solar panel, wherein the heat exchanger comprises:
an outer layer;a fluid chamber defined between the outer layer and the bottom surface of the solar panel;an inlet for directing a thermal transfer fluid into the fluid chamber;an outlet for receiving the thermal transfer fluid from the fluid chamber; andat least one spacer within the fluid chamber, the spacer configured to control a flow of the thermal transfer fluid between the inlet and the outlet.
