How does solar radiation affect a photovoltaic cell?
Many researchers have studied the effect of solar radiation, whether positive or negative on the photovoltaic cell and found that the shadow or change in wavelengths resulting from clouds or accumulation of dust in the atmosphere reduces the intensity of radiation and the productivity of the solar cell [40, 41].
Why is solar cell temperature higher indoor vs outdoor irradiation?
For every 100 W/m 2 increasing irradiation intensity, the module's solar cell temperature rises by 7.52°C for indoor and by 5.67°C for outdoor cases. The module's indoor temperature is higher than outdoor because, at outdoor conditions, the amount of diffuse irradiation is higher than indoor.
How does solar radiation affect the output of a cell?
The results showed that solar radiation has a direct effect on the temperature of the cell as this temperature increases with the increase of solar radiation. Due to the increased temperature, it became the main cause of the decline of the output of the cell.
How does solar radiation affect the performance of a solar panel?
This implies that an increase in solar radiation leads to increase in output current which enhances efficiency (performance) of a solar panel. However, the increase in solar radiation is followed by an increase in the PV cell temperature which has a bad effect on ball the studied parameters.
How does irradiation affect solar power output?
Every 5° increase in tilt angle creates a reduction in solar cell temperature by 3.62°C at indoor and 2.70°C at outdoor conditions. For every 100 W/m 2 rise in irradiation intensity, power output increases by 4.06 W at indoor and 5.56 W at outdoor, while efficiency drops by 1.01% at indoor and 1.44% at outdoor.
How does irradiation affect the efficiency of PV modules?
Hussein et al. reported that the maximum efficiency, power, and short-circuit current of the PV modules increases with the amount of irradiation intercepted by the module, which mostly depends on its orientation (tilt and azimuth).
