Plastics are revealed the most widely used materials for the construction of the different components forsolar heating devices In the present work, a numerical study on the performances of a hybrid photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) air solar collector is developed. The purpose of this study is to compare the efficiencies of the hybrid PV/T solar system using plastic and glass as cover material. The model is based on energy balance at various nodes of the system; the studied system is composed of a transparent glazing: glass or poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), this material can be recyclable, has high resistance to thermal stresses and economical compared to glass. On the basis of the numerical results, the use of the PMMA is beneficial to transmit more heat and improve the thermal performances of the system studied and it has been observed that the overall efficiency of hybrid PV/T system are 88.695% and 87.385%respectively for using PMMA or glass as glazing.
