A Study on the Thermal Characteristics of Photovoltaic Modules
태양전지 모듈의 열적 특성에 관한 연구
Abstract
The PV modules are affected by heat. The hotter the PV module, the lower the power output, then the life time will be short. If the cell temperature rises above a certain limit the encapsulating materials can be damaged, and this will degrade the performance of the PV module. This is called the ‘hot spot’ formation. This paper presents that the PV module temperature can be estimated by using a thermal analysis program, and demonstrates the thermal characteristics of the PV module.
