AI Customer ServiceIn one day, the panel consumed 15.6 litres of water, sprayed over the panel when its PV module exceeded 45°C. This in turn heated the water to above 30°C, which was then fed to a water heating system, improving the system’s overall efficiency. Some companies already offer commercial-scale photovoltaic solar water-cooling systems.
Decades ago, researchers showed that cooling solar panels with water can provide that benefit. Today, some companies even sell water-cooled systems. But those setups require abundant available water and storage tanks, pipes, and pumps. That's of little use in arid regions and in developing countries with little infrastructure.
The objective of the research is to minimize the amount of water and electrical energy needed for cooling of the solar panels, especially in hot arid regions, e.g., desert areas in Egypt. A cooling system has been developed based on water spraying of PV panels.
The amount of water flowing through the cooling system depends on the intensity of solar radiation reaching the system. This radiation is also responsible for increasing the volume of gas in the expansion device. The proposed solution increased the electrical efficiency of the PV panels by 8.3%.
The water-based cooling system was found to increase the solar cells performance higher than the air based cooling system. Dubey and Tiwari designed an integrated combined system of a photovoltaic (PV) panel with a thermal (T) solar water heater. The hybrid PV/T solar system has been designed and tested in outdoor condition of New Delhi.
However, cooling by spraying water using a fan is not an efficient method, since the water will not be sprayed over the whole panel, and therefore, some parts of the PV panels will not be cooled, as well as this method results in a very high water loss. Tang et al. designed a novel micro-heat pipe array for solar panels cooling.
