PV module is conventionally connected in series with some solar cell to adjust the output of module. Some bypass diodes in module are installed to prevent module from hot spot and mismatch power loss. However, bypass diode in module exposed outdoor is easily damaged by surge voltage. In this paper, we study the thermal and electrical characteristics change of module with damaged bypass diode to easily find module with damaged bypass diode in photovoltaic system consisting of many modules. Firstly, the temperature change of bypass diode is measured according to forward and reverse bias current flowing through bypass diode. The maximum surface temperature of damaged bypass diode applied reverse bias is higher than that of normal bypass diode despite flowing equal current. Also, the output change of module with and without damaged bypass diode is observed. The output of module with damaged bypass diode is proportionally reduced by the total number of connected solar cells per one bypass diode. Lastly, the distribution temperature of module with damaged bypass diode is confirmed by IR camera. Temperature of all solar cells connected with damaged bypass diode rises and even hot spot of some solar cells is observed. We confirm that damaged bypass diodes in module lead to power drop of module, temperature rise of module and temperature rise of bypass diode. Those results are used to find module with a damaged bypass diode in system.

To guarantee more exact maximum power of solar cell module, it is absolutely required to have performance characteristics of various solar cells. Today, there are many types of solar simulator for large area measurement. But it is very opaque how to select the best one for various solar cell module like crystalline silicon solar cell, high efficiency solar cell, amorphous silicon thin film solar cell, CdTe and CIGS solar cell module. So, in this paper 4 types of photovoltaic module were selected to compare the electrical characteristics by changing light pulse duration time and voltage scan direction. Light pulse duration time was varied from 10msec to 800msec. And two types of voltage scan directions, Voc->Isc and Isc->Voc were selected. From this results, optimum measuring condition was suggested and electrical variation was analysed for each types of solar cell module. The detail description is specified as the following paper.

최근 환경보호와 신재생에너지 확보 일환으로 태양광발전소가 널리 보급되고 있으며, 태양광 모듈의 효율적인 관리를 위해서는 정기적인 점검이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 UAV 기반 열적외선 카메라와 GIS 공간분석을 통해 태양광 모듈에 대한 고장여부를 진단할 수 있는 실험을 실시하였다. 먼저 고정익 UAV와 RGB 카메라를 이용하여 영상을 촬영한 후 Pix4D SW를 통해 정사영상을 생성하였으며, 정사영상 자료를 이용하여 태양광 모듈 레이어를 구축한 후 코드를 입력하였다. 또한 태양광 모듈 고장여부를 진단하기 위해 고무덮개를 태양광 모듈에 설치하였으며, 열적외선 카메라로부터 얻어진 온도 정보와 태양광 모듈 레이어를 기반으로 Zonalmean 함수를 통해 태양광 모듈별 평균온도를 계산할 수 있었다. 마지막으로 GIS 공간분석을 통해 이상 발열이 확인된 $37^{\circ}C$ 이상의 모듈을 자동으로 추출하고 각 모듈별 고유식별 코드를 식별함으로써 고무 덮개를 설치한 모듈의 위치를 정확하게 분석할 수 있었다.

Solar cell converts light energy to electric energy. But a solar cell generates low power, PV module is fabricated by connected in series with dozens of solar cell. Owing to solar cell connected in series, power of PV module is influenced by shading or mismatch power of solar cells. To prevent power loss of PV module by shading or mismatch current, Bypass diodes are installed in PV module. Bypass diode operating reverse voltage by shading or mismatch power of solar cells bypass mismatch current. However, bypass diode in module exposed outdoor is easily damaged by surge voltage. In this paper, we confirm characteristics variation of PV module with damaged bypass diode. As a result, power of PV module with damaged bypass diode is reduced and Temperature of that is increased.

PV module is installed in various outdoor conditions such as solar irradiation, ambient temperature, wind speed and etc. Increase in solar cell temperature within PV module aggravates the behaviour and durability of PV module. It is difficult to measure temperature among respective PV module components during PV module operating, because the temperature within PV module depends on thermal characteristics of PV module components materials as well as operating conditions such as irradiation, outdoor temperature, wind etc. In this paper, simulation by using finite element method is conducted to predict the temperature of each components within PV module installed to outdoor circumstance. PV module structure based on conventional crystalline Si module is designed and the measured values of thickness and thermal parameters of component materials are used. The validation of simulation model is confirmed by comparing the calculated results with the measured temperatures data of PV module. The simulation model is also applied to estimate the thermal radiation of PV module by front glass and back sheet.

The integration of PV modules into building facades or roof could raise PV module temperature that results in the reduction of electrical power generation. Lowering operating temperature of PV module is important in this respect, and PV module temperature should be considered more accurately, for building-integrated PV(BIPV) systems in predicting their performance. This paper describes a BIPV solar roof design and verifies its performance through experiment In relation to the effect of ventilation in space between PV module and roof surface. The results showed that the ventilation in the space had a positive effect in lowering the module temperature of the BIPV solar roof that enhanced the performance of its electricity generation.

In this paper, we analyze the Transition of Isc by natural solar spectrum of c-Si and a-Si PV module. Commonly, performance of photovoltaic (PV) module is estimated under the standard test condition (STC). That is, solar irradiance $1kW/m^2$, solar spectrum distribution: AM1 5G, module temperature $25^{\circ}C$ This means it rarely meets actual outdoor conditions. The solar spectrum always changes. So it is rare to fit the standard solar spectrum AM1 5G defined in ASTM G173-03 or IEC 60904-3. Thus spectral response of PV module is different depending on the material. so we estimated the variation of Isc at every minutes by comparing c-Si PV module with a-si PV module for outdoor conditions.

It is necessary to measure the solar cell parameter fur understanding characteristic of solar cell and applying to many other fields. Since photovoltaic system consists of solar cell module, which are connected each other in series and parallel, it is not proper to apply a solar cell parameter to photovoltaic system. Therefore, to estimate the solar tell module and to solve the problem of the established algorithm is on demand. In this paper the authors have improved the accuracy of solar cell module Parameter estimation by compensating series and Parallel resistance, and developed a new parameter estimation algorithm, which can be applied to photovoltaic system without high cost measuring equipment. And the validity of proposed algorithm is verified by the simulation and experimentation.
