Application of transparent self-cleaning coating for photovoltaic panel
Dust is a small dry solid particle in the air that is emerged from natural forces (wind, volcanic eruption, and chemical) or man-made processes (crushing, grinding, milling,
Self-protecting concave microstructures on glass surface for
Different from the prominent microstructure of others, concave microstructure is innovatively designed on the surface of the glass cover plate, this is rare in the PV field. Their
Testing and Performance of the Convex Lens Concentrating
The basic characteristic of the convex lens is that when an infinite set of parallel rays parallel to principal axis of the lens fall on the lens surface, they are concentrated at a single point by the
Effect of dust and methods of cleaning on the performance of solar PV
As dust accumulates on the solar PV panel surface, it forms a thin layer that has a negatively effect on the overall energy obtained from the solar PV module (Jaradat et al.,
