Popis:	A prototype compact TPV generator with a propane burner (pressure 2 bar) and a metallic netted emitter has been developed and tested. A photovoltaic generator unit with 24 (1 × 1 cm2) GaSb cells has been fabricated. The fabrication technology of photovoltaic cells has been optimized. It is shown that the data obtained can be used to select the starting bulk material for fabrication of photovoltaic cells with similar output parameters. It has been experimentally demonstrated that, to achieve maximum efficiency, it is necessary, in addition to using photovoltaic cells with similar characteristics, to provide identical conditions of their operation (temperature, illuminance).
