| Popis: | 35th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 1247-1251 The performance and durability of photovoltaic modules are strongly affected by the physical condition of their component layers, geometry, and mounting conditions. A proper evaluation of sensitivities of each design variable would help us strengthen the key aspects that affect their mechanical durability in various end use environments. Application of finite element analysis to study the stress and temperature distributions under simple static and dynamic conditions have been suggested previously [1]-[4]. This paper presents a comprehensive study of a broad spectrum of module configurations under practical static and dynamic loading conditions. The objective is to provide comparative information about stress distributions and component failure of the modules of Glass-EVA-Cells-EVABacksheet and Glass-EVA-Cells-EVA-Glass configurations with varying glass and frame thickness, loaded in various mounting conditions. In case of Glass - Glass configurations, the variation in behaviour with and without frame has also been studied. |
