In this article, a simulation and evaluation of the mechanical stress exerted by wind on photovoltaic panels is performed. The stresses solar cells in PV module are calculated using finite element method, taking into account pressure allowable stresses, according to regulatory requirements. Seven different operating positions panel during its rotation from 0° 90° considered. each these position...

In this study, a prototype system was established for location heating application and electricity generation through utilizing two concentrated photovoltaic thermal panels (CPV/T) possessing flat surface receivers connected in series with each other. The purpose of the is to supply needs room winter season meet requirement equipment used system. analysis installed system, different refrigerant...

Photovoltaics (PV) is a method of converting solar energy into direct current electricity using semiconducting materials that exhibit the photovoltaic effect. Cracking in PV panels can cause performance degradation panels. In this study, new computational methodology, peridynamics utilised to investigate cracking behaviour Peridynamics based on integro-differential equations, and it very suitab...
