Solar Cell Arrays and Residential Buildings - Architectural Aspects of the Integration of Solar Cell Arrays in Residential Buildings
No doubt it is a task for architects to incorporate solar cell arrays in residential buildings. The publication first of all discusses the technical build-up of solar cells (photovoltaic effect, single-crystal and multi-crystal solar cells, state of development) and the build-up of solar cell arrays (roofing tiles containing solar cells, solar modules, hybrid collectors, fluorescence collectors) which can be integrated into residential buildings. As a basis for the discussion of buildings the constructional pre-requisites of roofs and outer walls are described. Problems are dealt with by the use of representative examples. With functional regards the relation of space wanted to space available is investigated. Furthermore the conditions of integration of solar cell arrays in residential buildings as well as the constructional conditions and possibilities of integration into roofs or outer walls are indicated. From the examples analysed the complexity of the integration of solar cell arrays in residential buildings is obvious. (ERA citation 10:046323)
