| Abstract | Abstract — It is significant to understand the effect of the light intensity and temperature on output performance of the crystalline solar modules. Therefore, it is possible to evaluate the J-V curves of solar module under various environmental conditions. This paper discuses the effect of light intensity and temperature on performance parameters of mono-crystalline and poly-crystalline silicon solar module. The experiments have been carried out under a solar simulator for various intensity levels in the range 0.2-1.0 Sun and 10–50oC, respectively. The results of the two modules indicated that light intensity has a dominant effect on current parameters. It is found that photocurrent; short circuit current and maximum current have been increased linearly with increasing light intensity. So, concentrating system may be regarded as a best choice to enhance the power output of solar system. The power density of the mono-crystalline and poly-crystalline silicon solar module increased from 8.96 and 7.72 mW/cm2 to 46.72 and 40.4 mW/cm2 for light intensity 0.2 and 1 Sun respectively. On the other hand, it has been observed that module temperature has a dramatic effect on voltage parameters. Open circuit voltage and maximum voltage are decrease with increasing module temperature. So, the maximum power density of the mono-crystalline and poly-crystalline silicon solar module decreased from 43.4 and 48.76/cm2 to 36.32 and 41.88mW/cm2 for temperature 10oC and 50oC respectively. |
