Use of solar energy

In the present study, cooling of PV module using a paraffin-based phase change material (PCM) in hot climate of Vietnam is investigated. Thermal modelling is first validated against experimental data reported in literature and then transient thermal simulations are carried out for a duration of 24 hours to assess the effect of PCM itself and PCM with internal fins.

Solar energy, light and heat radiation from the Sun, has been exploited by humans since ancient times using a variety of technology development than ever before. Solar radiation along with secondary resources of energy like wind and solar energy, water power and biomass, make the most of renewable energy available on earth. Only a tiny fraction of the available solar energy is used.

The use of solar energy has been adduced as an alternative way for generating electricity. This electricity is generated by solar panel but as temperature increases efficiency of panel decreases too. The main objective of this research paper is to minimize the use of the amount of water, electrical energy and required time needed for cooling of a solar panel.
