Abstract

The analysis results of the temperature distribution and deformation at the PV cell with a thickness of $200{\mu}m$ according to hot-air temperature at the soldering process of a PV cell and ribbon tend to agree somewhat with the experimental measured values. The best result of the electrical efficiency appears in the module soldered at a hot-air temperature of $390^{\circ}C$. An analysis of the soldering PV cell with a thickness of $150{\mu}m$ at a hot-air temperature of $350^{\circ}C$ confirmed that the maximum deformation was approximately 5.9mm. As the temperature of hot air is set to decrease, the deformation is reduced and it is predicted that the electrical efficiency can be improved.

PV셀과 리본의 솔더링 공정에서 열풍온도에 따른 $200{\mu}m$ 두께의 PV셀의 온도분포와 변형량의 해석 결과는 실험 측정치와 거의 일치함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 전기효율은 설정온도 $390^{\circ}C$로 PV셀을 솔더링한 모듈에서 가장 좋은 결과가 나타났다. 열풍온도를 $350^{\circ}C$로 설정하고 $150{\mu}m$ 두께의 PV셀을 솔더링 해석한 결과, 최대 변형량이 약 5.9mm로서 상당히 큰 값임을 확인할 수 있었으며, 열풍온도를 보다 낮은 온도로 설정해야 변형량이 감소하고 전기효율이 향상될 것을 예측하였다.
