Influence of DC electric and magnetic fields on silicon solar cells/modules
摘要： In this study, the impact of DC electric and magnetic fields on the output power, open-circuit voltage, and photocurrent density of a silicon photovoltaic (PV) cell/module is assessed. In this regard, the influence of DC electric and magnetic fields is first evaluated in theory by formulating and discussing related basis and concepts. Then, experimental measurements and data obtained from two different sets of experiments are given that verify theoretical results. In theory and practice, it is shown that depending on the direction of a DC electric field applied to a silicon PV cell/module, it causes an increase or reduction in the output power and open-circuit voltage of the PV cell/module. In detail, when the DC electric field points in the direction of the junction electric field of the PV cell(s), the output power and open-circuit voltage of the silicon PV cell/module increase, otherwise the output power and open-circuit voltage decrease. Regarding the magnetic field, it is proved that depending on the direction of a DC magnetic field applied to a silicon PV cell/module, different effects are observed. In detail, when the DC magnetic field points along the junction electric field of the PV cell(s), it has no effect on the output power and open-circuit voltage of the silicon PV cell/module. But, the output power and open-circuit voltage of the silicon PV cell/module decrease when the DC magnetic field points in the other directions. Moreover, the reduction in the output power and open-circuit voltage reaches its peak when the DC magnetic field is applied in the direction perpendicular to the junction electric field.

Risk priority number for understanding the severity of photovoltaic failure modes and their impacts on performance degradation
摘要： The alleged reliability has led the longest warranty period for Photovoltaic (PV) modules up to 20-25 years; it becomes possible after understanding the failure mode and degradation analysis of PV module. Failure mode decreases the performance of the PV module throughout the long-term outdoor exposure. The main objective of the present study is to identify the failure mechanism and failure mode of solar PV modules and their impact on degradation in operating conditions. Assessment of previous studies on rate indicates the highest performance losses at initial stage of outdoor exposure and a degradation drop-off of 0.014% per year. In this context, risk priority number (RPN) analysis is carried out to identify the severity of the failure mode, which affect the system performance for c-Si technologies. However, hot spot and de-lamination are degradation modes related to safety issue with lower value of RPN <50.
