    Evaluation of solar PV panel performance under humid atmosphere
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2020) Tripathi, A.K.; Ray, S.; Mangalpady, A.; Prasad, S.
    The main aim of this paper is to study the effects of humidity on the PV panel. In this paper, the panel performance was studied in the laboratory under varied humid atmosphere. The PV performance parameters were computed by measuring its output voltage and current, amount of solar radiation incident on the panel's surface and its surface temperature by varying humidity levels artificially in the laboratory. From the studies it was observed that with rising humidity levels, solar insolation and panel power output decrease. With an increment of 50.15% in the humidity level, the panel power output reduces by 34.22%. Moreover, it was found that due to the increase in humidity from 65.40% to 98.20% the panel temperature got lowered by 11.40%. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    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
