Sažetak
This paper presents an experimental approach where a water spray cooling technique was implemented to siliceous monocrystalline photovoltaic panels in order to obtain an increase in panel electrical efficiency. The major problems of market available photovoltaic technologies are electrical efficiency degradations caused with the increase of average panel temperature and cleaning issues that can significantly affect panel performance. The provided experimental study showed potential as we managed to obtain an increase in electric power output and an increase in electrical efficiency. Finally, economic viability of the proposed cooling technique was proven and it showed a potential for its application.
