摘要：
Geographical factors and environmental variables affect the performance of the solar photovoltaic (SPV) system. The incident solar radiation on the SPV will generate power and increase the surface temperature. Thermal regulation is needed for the SPV system to enhance its performance. In this work, a passive cooling approach is adopted to reduce the surface temperature of the SPV system. The eutectic phase change material is synthesized with the composition of RT35 paraffin wax and sodium sulfate decahydrate. The thermophysical properties of the eutectic mixture are analyzed using a differential scanning calorimeter, and thermal conductivity is measured. The developed eutectic PCM is integrated into the SPV modules' rear-side packing in the aluminum container. The output of the PV module is increased by 10% and up to 6.1 degrees C reduces the surface temperature of the SPV module compared to the conventional SPV system.
