    Performance analysis of PV panel under varying surface temperature
    (EDP Sciences edps@edpsciences.com, 2018) Tripathi, T.A.; Murthy, Ch.S.N.; Mangalpady, M.
    The surface temperature of PV panel has an adverse impact on its performance. The several electrical parameters of PV panel, such as open circuit voltage, short circuit current, power output and fill factor depends on the surface temperature of PV panel. In the present study, an experimental work was carried out to investigate the influence of PV panel surface temperature on its electrical parameters. The results obtained from this experimental study show a significant reduction in the performance of PV panel with an increase in panel surface temperature. A 5W PV panel experienced a 0.4% decrease in open circuit voltage for every 1°C increase in panel surface temperature. Similarly, there was 0.6% and 0.32% decrease in maximum power output and in fill factor, respectively, for every 1°C increase in panel surface temperature. On the other hand, the short circuit current increases with the increase in surface temperature at the rate of 0.09%/°C. © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2018.

    Laboratory investigation of photovoltaic panel performance under the shaded condition
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2020) Tripathi, A.K.; Mangalpady, M.; Ray, S.; Parida, S.
    The most encouraging use of solar energy is its conversion into electrical energy by using solar photovoltaic (PV) panel. The performance of solar-based PV panel is undoubtedly influenced by the quantity of solar radiation, which is reaching on the panel surface. The occurrence of shading over the panel surface is a vital environmental phenomenon which affects the penetration of solar radiation to reach the overall surface area of photovoltaic cells. The shading on PV panels may happen due to trees, the formation of mists, accumulation of dirt elements on the panel surface, close by long-standing structures, shadows of different panels in its region, neighbouring structures and so on. This paper is mainly focused on the study of shading impact on the panel performance. Further, this paper also observed the influence of shading on the variation of surface temperature of the PV panel. The present study shown a significant reduction of 41.40% in the maximum power output (Pmax) of the panel due to 25% shading strength of the single cell in the panel. Moreover, it was also observed that the increase in the percentage shading strength over the panel surface shifts the maximum power point (MPP), of the panel characteristics, towards the lower output voltage, which affects the effective operation of the charge controller. Further, it was seen that the shading impact degrades the performance of the panel as well as in charge of the rise of the surface temperature of the panel. In the present investigation, it was observed that the temperature of the unshaded cell rises at the rate of 1.753%, due to the shading phenomena over the panel surface. © 2020 IEEE.

    Analysis on photovoltaic panel temperature under the influence of solar radiation and ambient temperature
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2021) Tripathi, A.K.; Ray, S.; Mangalpady, M.
    The generation of electrical energy from solar energy is one of the most promising utilization of solar energy technology and it can be achieved by the application of solar photovoltaic (PV) panel. In this paper an experimental study has been conducted to examine the effect of solar radiation and ambient temperature on the surface temperature of the solar photovoltaic panel. With the help of experimental measurements, a multi-linear regression model is developed relating the three quantities. The developed model validated with the actual measured values shows good accuracy with small values of root mean square error. During the study, the recordedvalue of maximum panel temperature was 78.50°C for the atmospheric condition which having solar radiation of 1140 W/m2 and ambient temperature of 36°C. The developed relation and subsequent outcomes of the study will help the PV panel designers and manufacturers incomprehending the effects of atmospheric parameters on the temperature of the photovoltaic panel. © 2021 IEEE
