Steady State Analysis of Solar Energy Transmitted to Solar Panel in Hot Weather Environment and Various Wind Speed

This paper study the steady state analysis of solar radiation energy transmitted to the solar panel in hot weather environment at various wind speeds. The solar energy falling on a photovoltaic panel can be divided into two main parts, the first part of the solar radiation energy is converted to electrical useful energy by the solar panel according to its efficiency, while the second part of the solar radiation energy is converted to thermal energy which is considered as energy losses from the PV system. The splitting of the absorbed energy into electrical energy and thermal energy depends on several factors such as solar panel electrical efficiency, the cell temperature, ambient temperature, wind speed, clouds, dust, other impurities and the other climatic conditions. This research study focuses on the percentage of absorbed energy that either converted to electric energy by PV panel, or lost as thermal losses when considering various wind speeds. Mathematical formulations and results are presented.
