Optimization of Photovoltaic Performance Using a Water Spray Cooling System with Different Nozzle Types

“…Research conducted by Arifin et al [18], cooling photovoltaic panels using PCM material reduced the temperature by 8.2℃, and research by Razali et al [19] photovoltaic cooling using heatsinks reduces temperature by 12℃. One active cooling that can be used on photovoltaic panels is the water spray cooling system [20][21][22]. The water spray cooling system was chosen because it has good cooling performance, no thermal contact resistance, and is easy to apply [23].…”
