论文摘要
我们研究和评估紫外线辐射光谱对在户外运行的基于商业晶体硅的温度和效率的贡献。通过采用全面的热电模型方法来进行研究,该方法考虑了光伏设备中温度变化影响的所有主要过程。我们表明,有效反映紫外线辐射(即达到一定的波长)会导致总体操作温度降低和PV细胞效率的提高。此外,从长远来看,阻止高能量紫外光子延长了PV的寿命及其性能。
We investigate and evaluate the contribution of the ultraviolet radiation spectrum on the temperature and efficiency of commercial crystalline silicon-based photovoltaics (PVs) that operate outdoors. The investigation is performed by employing a comprehensive thermal-electrical modeling approach which takes into account all the major processes affected by the temperature variation in the photovoltaic devices. We show that effectively reflecting the ultraviolet radiation (i.e. up to a certain wavelength) results in a reduction of the overall operation temperature and enhancement of the PV cell's efficiency. In addition, blocking the high energy ultraviolet photons prolongs the life time of the PV and its performance on the long term.
