The most demanding aspect of the modern generation is energy production from a sustainable renewable source. The huge amount of sun's irradiation plays a significant role in delivering heat energy as a renewable energy source. Photovoltaic solar panels are the devices that can capture this vast source of the limitless photon ocean. However, these devices suffer from performance efficiency issues due to overheating. Finned structures are applied on electronics, and engines for better heat dissipation and to avoid overheating. This study proposes a solar panel model integrated with pin-finned structures shaped rectangular, square, and circular. After attaching the fins at the back of the photovoltaic module steady state and transient state thermal simulation has been carried out in ANSYS Mechanical. These analyses revealed that the heat flux through the solar panel significantly decreases in the finned solar panel structures. In the case of circular pin fins 58%, square pins 26%, and rectangular pin fins 55% heat flux reduction from the base solar panel model where the highest heat flux value consists of 270 kW/m2. At the same time, the base solar PVC temperature was reduced from 132° to 67° (rectangular pin-fin), 60° (square pin-fin), and 58° (circular pin-fin). This indicates that the cooler solar panel will consume more photons and consequently more electron knockout. Consequently, both the heat transfer and electricity generation rates of the photovoltaic device will increase. This research holds significant implications for the cost-effective optimized colling method of solar panels especially in Bangladesh. It offers insights into the heat transfer of the solar panel with different fin designs. This study also reduces thermal instability and increases the electricity-generating capability of the solar panel. Furthermore, it delves into improving solar panel performance presenting a promising avenue for sustainable energy production. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
