  • The experimental study is performed to investigate the optimum design of the system dissipating properly heat from the in-situ solar panel installed on site. For this purpose, six 12-Watts panels, which are set at the different conditions of the solar panels contained phase change material, changing the array of the aluminum fin and honeycomb at the back of the panel, are tested. PCM, which has $44^{\circ}C$ melting point, is chosen in this study. In order to enhance the thermal heat from the absorbed heat in PCM, finned aluminum plate is placed. Furthermore, Aluminum honeycomb is imbedded in the back container to find if it would improve the thermal conductivity of PCM. As a result, the solar panel, which is combined with honeycomb and outward fins with PCM instead of placing the fine inward, is showing the best performance in terms of controling panel temperature and efficiency.

  • 최근 정부정책에 따른 원자력 발전의 감축과 신재생에너지의 급속한 보급확대에 따라 국내 태양광 발전 설치가 급격히 확대되고 있다. 이러한 태양광 발전 설비의 급속한 증가는 필연적으로 신재생에너지 산업에서의 폐기물 증가로 이어진다. 그러나 현재 신재생에너지 분야에서 발생한 폐기물에 대한 국내 사후 관리 시스템 구축에 대한 정책 논의는 미비하다. 동 연구는 태양광 패널 재활용 산업의 비용 및 편익을 추정하고 한국의 태양광 폐기물 재활용 정책에 대한 시사점을 도출하고자 한다. 동 연구의 결과에 따르면, 태양광 패널 재활용 사업의 실행 기간이 10년일 경우, 재활용 프로젝트의 수익성이 매우 낮다는 결론이 도출된다. 반면 재활용 프로젝트의 기간이 20년으로 연장될 경우, 2030년 이후 국내 태양광 폐기물의 총 용량이 크게 증가하여 규모의 경제로 인해 프로젝트의 경제 효율성이 충분히 높아질 수 있다는 결론을 도출하였다. 태양광 패널 재활용 사업의 경우 단기적으로는 경제적 효율성이 매우 낮기 때문에 민간 기업의 자발적 사업 참여를 기대하기 어렵다. 따라서 재활용 사업의 경제성 향상 및 관련 산업 활성화를 위한 다양한 정부의 정책마련이 긴요하다. 이를 위해서는 i) 폐태양광 패널의 재활용을 위한 법률 제정, ii) 태양광 패널 폐기물 모니터링 및 비용관리를 위한 협회 지정, iii) 태양광 패널 재활용 관련 R & D 수립 및 재활용과 관련된 다양한 비즈니스 모델 개발 등의 정책 마련이 필요하다.

  • 초소형 위성인 큐브위성의 경우 위성체의 제한적인 중량 및 부피를 고려하여 경량화 및 전기적 회로설계 측면에서 유리한 PCB 기반의 전개형 태양전지판이 폭넓게 적용되고 있으나, PCB의 낮은 두께 방향 열전도율로 인해 태양전지셀의 방열이 어려운 점이 있다. 본 논문에서 제안한 6U 큐브위성용 태양전지판은 PCB 기반의 태양전지판으로 제작되고, 판넬 외곽에 장착된 알루미늄 보강재 접속부에 열전도 패드가 적용된다. 따라서 판넬 전면부의 태양전지셀에서 방열면인 판넬 후면으로 열전달이 원활하도록 하여 PCB 적용에 따른 장점을 유지하면서도 방열성능을 극대화함으로서 태양전지셀 온도 하강에 따른 전력생성효율 향상이 가능한 장점을 갖는다. 본 연구에서 제안된 열전도 패드가 적용된 태양전지판의 열제어 측면에서의 유효성 입증을 위해 궤도 열해석을 통해 기존 PCB 태양전지판과 비교 분석을 실시하였다.

  • This study analyzes the efficiency of a solar cell attached to an air circulation jacket. A commercially available silicon solar panel was selected and attached at four spots where the body angle was $40-60^{\circ}$ and voltage ($V_{oc}$, V), current ($I_{sc}$, A), and output power (P, W) were measured to determine the efficiency. The solar panel was applied to the outer jacket that operates with two fans to increase the convection that lowers the body temperature. The heavy work of standing, walking, and sweeping of a street sweeper was simulated in the field test. The microclimate within the jacket (with or without a fan) was measured and the subjective thermal, humidity, and comfort sensations were surveyed. SPSS 12.0 statistical package was used for a t-test and Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The results show that the highest efficiency of the solar cell was at the incident angle of $60^{\circ}$ in terms of voltage, current and output power distribution. The microclimate temperature of the air circulation jacket decreased significantly with the high power of the fan and subjects felt cooler than the jacket with a fan at the incident angle of $60^{\circ}$. Air circulation jackets operated by a silicon solar panel showed a significant cooling effect on the wearers.

  • The conversion of solar radiation into electrical energy by Photo-Voltaic (PV) effect is a very promising technology, being clean, silent and reliable, with very small maintenance costs and small ecological impact. The output power produced by the PV panels depends strongly on the incident light radiation. The continuous modification of the sun-earth relative position determines a continuously changing of incident radiation on a fixed PV panel. The point of maximum received energy is reached when the direction of solar radiation is perpendicular on the panel surface. Thus an increase of the output energy of a given PV panel can be obtained by mounting the panel on a solar tracking device that follows the sun trajectory. Tracking systems that have two axes and follow the sun closely at all times during the day are currently the most popular. This paper presents research conducted into the performance of Solar tracking system with photosensors. The results show that an optimized dual-axis tracking system with photosensor performance and analysis. From the obtained results, it is seen that the sun tracking system improves the energy and energy efficiency of the PV panel.ti-junction CPV module promises to accelerate growth in photovoltaic power generation.

  • Solar energy is most green and clean, unlimited and sustainable energy source on the earth. It is almost 97% of imported consumer energy in Korea. Because of resource poor nation, it is necessary to do their best to make alternative energy to allot their deficiency of the matter in hand of energy resources of petroleum. In a point of view of this problems, the natural solar energy should be improved by any methods as much, possible as we need. Photovoltaic generation with solar tracking system for obtaining optimal power is one of most benefit equipment to improve power of solar-cell panel producing clean electric power efficiently. Solar tracker is a device for orienting a solar photovoltaic panel toward the sun perpendicularly to sunlight, especially in widely separated place. For this reason, we are very interested in developing the equipment system of tracker, specially in solar cell applications, obtaining a high degree of accuracy to ensure that the optimal sunlight could be directed precisely against to the powered device. As a result, it was obtained of 12.46 volts at 90$^\circ$toward solar panel and 9.44 volts at 45$^\circ$, furthermore, improved efficiency more than 30% of average output voltage between tracker system (12.41V) and fixed system (8.55V), respectively. It is also very useful for optimum power system of widely separated cave.

  • 성층권 비행선용 재생전원 시스템에 대한 기본 연구로서 태양전지 설치각의 최적값에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 비행선이 풍향에 따라 동절기에는 서쪽을, 하절기에는 동쪽을 향하게 된다. 이를 고려하면 위도 약 36도의 한반도 지역의 성층권 고도에서 단순화된 풍향 가정하에 태양전지가 비행선 왼쪽에 중심각 30도로 장착되는 경우 동지 시의 공급전력량을 최대화하여 동시에 하절기의 전력 요구량을 만족함을 알 수 있었다. 본 최적화 연구결과, 태양전지 설치각의 최적화와 동시에 재생형 연료전지의 효율이 47%이상 되어야 170m급 성층권 비행선의 요구전력량을 공급할 수 있으며, 요구되는 효율의 증가량은 비행선의 크기가 커질수록 감소한다.

  • In this paper, we propose an example of designing and constructing a roof-type solar power plant structure equipped with a Pseudo-BIPV (Building-Integrated Photovoltaic) shape suitable for use as a roof of a small warehouse with a sandwich-type panel structure. As the characteristics of the roof-type solar power generation facility to be installed in the small warehouse proposed in this study, the shape of the roof is not a general A type, but a right-angled triangle shape with the slope is designed to face south. We chose a structure in which an inverter for one power plant and a control facility are linked by grouping several roofs of buildings. In addition, the height of the roof structure is less than 20 cm from the floor, and it has a shape similar to that of the BIPV, so it is building-friendly because it is almost in close contact with the roof. At the same time, the roof creates a reflective light source due to the white color. By linking this roof with a double-sided solar panel, we designed it to obtain both the advantage of the roof-friendliness and the advantage of efficiency improvement for the electric power generation based on the double-sided panel. Compared to the existing solar power generation facilities using A-shaped cross-sectional modules, the power generation efficiency of roofs in this case is increased by more than 11%, which we can confirm, through the comparison analysis of monitoring data between power plants in the same area. Therefore, if the roof-type solar structure suitable for the small warehouse we have presented in this paper is used, the facilities of electric power generation is eco-friendly. Further it is easier to obtain facility certification compared to the BIPV, and improved capacity of the power generation can be secured at low material cost. It is believed that the roof-type solar power generation facility we proposed can be usefully used for warehouse or factory-based smart housing. Sensor devices for monitoring, CCTV monitoring, or safety and environment management, operating in connection with the solar power generation facilities, are linked with the Internet of Things (IoT) solution, so they can be monitored and controlled remotely.
