The temperature of SPV panels under realistic settings is being modeled theoretically.To accurately measure the heating effect, the temperature coefficient of the solar cells is utilized. A decrease in photoelectric efficiency of 2.9–9.0% occurs in solar cells having a temperature coefficient of 2.1–5.0%.Du et al. [128]
Photovoltaic conversion is mainly influenced by the operating temperature. Temperature affects both the module’s electrical efficiency and its output power linearly.The photovoltaic conversion process is heavily reliant on controlling the operating temperature. An SPV module’s electrical efficiency and, by extension, its output power are directly proportional to its operating temperature, which decreases linearly with module temperature.Dubey et al. [129]
Analyzing the behavior of a monocrystalline SPV panel under various temperatures is done using MATLAB/Simulink software.Photovoltaic system efficiency is greatly affected by the temperature of the solar cells.Zaini et al. [130]
Real-time solar radiation and ambient temperature will be used to evaluate the influence of heating on SPV cells’ efficiency.Achieving maximal performance and maximum output from a solar energy harvesting module requires that its temperature be kept within an acceptable range for the SPV module.Thong et al. [131]
Temperature and solar radiation affect the performance of m-Si silicon, p-Si, and Copper Indium Diselenide (CIS) modules under real-environmental conditions.Temperature affects the efficiency and fill factor of m-Si and p-Si modules; this is not the case with CIS modules.Perraki and Kounavis [132]
The temperature coefficients of commercially available solar modules are examined.CdTe-based modules have an average temperature coefficient of power of -0.446%/°C for m-Si, 0.387%/°C for p-Si, and 0.172%/°C for CdTe-based modules correspondingly.Dash and Gupta [133]
Filtering certain spectrum solar radiation before entering an SPV panel might result in various temperature profiles and varying output powers.The temperature profile of an SPV panel is altered when solar energy is filtered before it enters the panel, resulting in lower panel temperatures in all cases (on average 18% reduction).Schoeman et al. [134]
A p-Si photovoltaic panel is tested for its electrical performance under various temperature conditions.An increase in temperature reduces panel efficiency by 0.5%/K, in total. In addition, a drop in SPV module efficiency of 1.23% was caused by a rise in temperature of 30°C.Idzkowski et al. [135]
An investigation into the performance of a specific type of solar panel. Since it has an open design and can therefore benefit from natural ventilation, it is self-cooling and keeps dust from collecting on its surface even during the hottest parts of the day.With the help of this Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model, it was demonstrated that a lower temperature in this solar system allows for maximum electrical production than a flat SPV system.Charfi et al.
