French researchers have developed a high-resolution computational framework to model microclimate effects of large floating solar PV systems, enabling accurate predictions of heat transfer, ambient ...
Abstract: The accumulation of dust and other particles on the photovoltaic (PV) modules leads to significant energy losses. In this paper, we show that the module temperature decreases with increasing ...
Scientists have grown organic romaine lettuce under 13 different types of PV modules, in an unusual hot Canadian summer. Their analysis showed lettuce yields increased by over 400% compared to ...
Fraunhofer ISE is exploring how medium-voltage technology can reduce the use of raw materials such as copper and aluminium in ...
The demonstrator model, based on Madrid urban conditions, is able to calculate yields but can also be used to evaluate alternative maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithms. The team combined ...
Abstract: This study presents an innovative approach to early detection of wire bond lift-off failures in power semiconductor modules (PSMs) using an integrated on-chip temperature sensor. Despite ...
