چکیده

This research outlines the numerical predictions of the heat distribution in solar cells, accompanied by their empirical validation. Finite element thermal models of five laminated silicon solar photovoltaic cells were firstly established using a simulation software (ANSYS®). The flexible laminated solar cells under study are made of a highly transparent frontsheet, a silicon cell between two encapsulants, and a backsheet. Different combinations of layers (i.e., materials and thicknesses) were taken into account in order to analyze their effect on thermal behavior. Thermal properties of materials were derived in accordance with the literature. Similarly, boundary conditions, loads, and heat losses by reflection and convection were also specified. The solar cells were tested using solar lamps under standard conditions (irradiance: ۱۰۰۰W/m۲; room-temperature: ۲۵°C) with real-time temperatures measured by a thermal imager. This analysis offers an interpretation of how temperature evolves through the solar cell and, consequently, how the design choice can influence the cells’ efficiency.

اطلاعات بیشتر در مورد COI

COI مخفف عبارت CIVILICA Object Identifier به معنی شناسه سیویلیکا برای اسناد است. COI کدی است که مطابق محل انتشار، به مقالات کنفرانسها و ژورنالهای داخل کشور به هنگام نمایه سازی بر روی پایگاه استنادی سیویلیکا اختصاص می یابد.

کد COI به مفهوم کد ملی اسناد نمایه شده در سیویلیکا است و کدی یکتا و ثابت است و به همین دلیل همواره قابلیت استناد و پیگیری دارد.
