N2 - This study integrated building structure, heat flow mechanism and photovoltaic system to develop the ventilated building-integrated photovoltaic wall. A full-scale ventilated BIPV wall prototype was developed and investigated using field tests to explore its heat transfer characteristics. After considering building construction practices, this prototype was transformed into a curtain wall structure that complemented the design of the overall construction. The result shows that the ventilated BIPV wall with the flow channel can dissipate BIPV heat gain efficiently and enhance the power generation.
