“…Chander et al [3] investigated the effect of cell temperature on the photovoltaic parameters of mono-crystalline silicon cell and reported that the open circuit voltage, maximum power, fill factor and efficiency were decreased with cell temperature. Zaoui et al [4] studied experimentally and numerically, the effect of irradiance and temperature on the performance of PV modules and reported the similar results.…”

“…In experimental set-up conditions, we are faced with different scenarios because the differences between the two systems are that the input of the system (solar radiation) in the experimental set-up test is not a controlled variable, so we continued with the integrated tests modelling standard conditions of the laboratory. In addition to experimental set-up, by changing the circumstances, taking into account the heat of the solar spectrum, the infrared spectrum, on the energy efficiency of solar cells in laboratory conditions is not possible [23,24]. Despite attempts to adapt to experimental set-up conditions, the temperature of the cell surface at the same ambient radiation and excess heat are not simulated outputs.…”

It is widely known that organic and inorganic coatings absorb more of the solar spectrum, and due to a considerable share of 45% infrared radiation, the energy efficiency drop by the increasing of temperature should be considered. The purpose of this study is to implement a system to characterize silicon solar cell performance and increasing energy efficiency by imposing such coatings as infrared wave absorber to overcome the Shockley-Queisser limit. In other words, this research efforts to improve cell efficiency (coating effects) in addition to imposing the efficiency decreasing effects (temperature increasing). The core of the study is laboratory and experimental setup measurements to find an organic absorber with the highest absorbance. Ruthenium-based dye, N719, has shown the best performance in experimental conditions and heat extraction to enhance cell energy efficiency. Due to increased absorption in a solar cell (SC), to control the temperature rise of the system, the fan is used as a cooling system. The imposing of N719 results in increasing energy efficiency by up to 1.38%. It is worth noting that a 1.60% increase in energy efficiency is observed due to temperature reduction by 2 degrees.

“…Photovoltaic (PV) cells have several advantages such as: no environmental pollution, high reliability, no noise and low maintenance cost. There are many factors affecting the efficiency and power output of photovoltaic panel such as radiation, ambient temperature, and wind speed [2] so that the efficiency of photovoltaic panel increases with increase of the wind speed,the decrease of the panel temperature and the increase of the solar radiation striking the panel there. Photovoltaic devices illuminated on the surface of the earth give out an electrical response which depends primarily on the quality, the intensity of the radiation received and the temperature of the illuminated photovoltaic cells.…”

This paper presents the construction of a model for a photovoltaic module using the single-diode five-parameter model, based exclusively on datasheet parameters. The model takes into account the series and parallel (shunt) resistance of the module. This easy and accurate method of modeling photovoltaic module, which is able to predict the module behavior in different temperatures and irradiance conditions under climate conditions of Baghdad city, is built and tested. This paper indicates how the parameters of the five-parameter model are determined, also estimates the output power generated and other electrical and internal parameters by photovoltaic module and compares predicted current-voltage curves and power-voltage curves with experimental data for monocrystalline and for four months. The theoretical results showed a slight increase in shunt resistance and photocurrent with solar radiation increasing. Also, the paper evaluates effects of weather factors on cell temperature using a simple formula. The results show that there is difference between theoretical (modeled) and experimental results. The maximum power validation result at radiation of 500, 750 and 1000W/m 2 was 5.5% in January, 18.4% in April and 20% in April respectively, the best validation of maximum power under standard testing conditions (STC) was 14.8% in January.The results obtained from modeling show agreement with experimental results of module temperature.
