The Effect of Additional Air Deflector at Air Concentrator on
An increase in the operating temperature of photovoltaic (PV) panels caused by high levels of solar irradiation can affect the efficiency and lifespan of PV panels.
Wind deflectors can minimize wind loads on solar panels, ensuring the safety of civilians and surrounding property.
A novel cooling channel system with multiple porous deflectors (PDs) and nanofluids is proposed for thermal management of photovoltaic (PV) panels. The PDs are elliptic in shape while alumina nanoparticle of cylindrical shape is considered in water which is used as the base cooling medium in the channel.
Efficient cooling system design is an important issue in photovoltaic (PV) embedded systems. The energy conversion efficiency is related to the PV cell temperature while rise of the cell temperature results in performance degradation.
According to the study, it is recommended to place wind deflectors on all sides of the solar panel racks as a complete wind management system to reduce both head-wind and side-wind effects. However, if all-sided wind deflectors are not economically viable, a wind deflector on the front is highly recommended to minimize head-wind effects.
An increase in the operating temperature of photovoltaic (PV) panels caused by high levels of solar irradiation can affect the efficiency and lifespan of PV panels.
