This paper describes the thermal and energy performance of three roof configurations: a conventional concrete slab, a BIPV system, and a BIPV system equipped with passive aluminum fins. Three-dimensional transient finite element simulations were carried out under field-measured 24 h meteorological boundary conditions characteristic of hot climates. The objective of this study is to quantify the impact of PV integration and passive cooling strategies on heat transfer behavior and building energy
