| Abstract | ||
| Cooling photovoltaic (CPV) system helps in focusing the direct solar radiation on the photovoltaic module. It has been used for evaluating the performance of the CPV module with air and water cooling systems for power output and cell temperature. Also the effect of cooling air speed and water flow rate has been analyzed for performance evaluation of the CPV module. It has been found that the electrical output of the PV by water cooling is the most efficient than air cooling. It has been noticed that the output of the CPV mainly depends on the heat extraction rate and it helps in managing the cell temperature. And also the heat extraction rate from the CPV module mainly depends on the cooling air speed and also water flow rate. | ||
