研究目的
To develop a control method to prevent a decrease in the efficiency of the PV module due to an increase in the PV’s temperature using thermoelectric device.
研究成果
Maintaining a photovoltaic panel’s operating temperature at approximately 25°C can reduce a decrease in the efficiency of a photovoltaics’ power output. The use of a TEC for cooling photovoltaic panels is a practicable active cooling alternative, with further research needed to build a prototype for experimental analysis.
研究不足
The research is focused on simulation and prototype development, with experimental analysis pending. The cost implications and energy consumption of the TEC system are yet to be fully evaluated.
