研究目的
To determine the best inclination angle for a solar PV panel that allows convective cooling to regulate surface temperature and mitigate overheating.
研究成果
At an inclination of 45o, convective cooling from surrounding wind was able to regulate the surface temperature of the PV panel, significantly distorting the sinusoidal trend of thermal heating and mitigating PV surface heating.
研究不足
The study focuses on the effect of inclination angle on PV panel temperature and efficiency, without considering other potential cooling mechanisms or the impact of varying wind speeds on convective cooling.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The PV panel was inclined at various degrees (0o, 30o, and 45o) to study the effect on surface temperature distribution and current production. A manual logger was designed to measure temperature and current simultaneously.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
A polycrystalline 10V solar panel was used. The PV panels were connected to the logger facing the south-east direction, determined using a GPS hand-held device.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Polycrystalline 10V solar panel, manual logger, GPS hand-held device.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The angle of inclination was varied (0o, 30o, and 45o), and data was processed using MATLAB software.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The dataset was processed using MATLAB software to analyze temperature distribution and current production.
