Concentrated PV thermal top cooling

Project Type

Solar Thermal Energy course Project

Date

Feb 2022- May 2022

Designed a solar PV system that uses top cooling approach. Plastic tubes were used to spray water on the glass surface of the module from the top and water was stored in a container. This water is continuously recirculated which is the most unique aspect of the project, as we are reducing the wastage of water. The water reduced the temperature and the system would operate when the panel temperature is above 55 degrees Celsius. This process was triggered by a temperature sensor that was connected to Arduino MEGA.
Components used:
Arduino MEGA
Solar PV panel ( 20W)
Wood
Plastic container
Pump (10W)
Plastic tubes
HW-550 MAX6675 K type thermocouple
Relay module
PVC pipe
