Abstract:

A photovoltaic cell converts the light energy coming from the sun into electrical energy using semiconductor materials through the photovoltaic effect. In the near future, fossil fuels are going to be exhausted, which indicates that we have to go with alternative energy. Solar energy is currently the most efficient, environmentally friendly, and renewable energy source on the planet. The major problem with solar panels is their conversion efficiency, which is severely affected by temperature. Nowadays, there are mainly four types of solar panels, namely thin film, amorphous silicon, monocrystalline silicon, and polycrystalline silicon, used to manufacture solar panels. The main aim of this paper is to give a comparison of the efficiencies of different photo voltaic cell materials based on their thermal profiles obtained from transient analysis. It focuses on the simulation of solar cells using the ANSYS software simulation tool and analysing thermal characteristics to find the efficiency.
