The enhancement of output power in solar systems is intricately linked to various factors, including the implementation of a solar tracking system and other aforementioned characteristics. The primary objective of this research endeavor is to examine the extent to which reflectors and mirrors can be employed to augment the output power.
As a result, these researchers discovered that using internal and external reflectors increased the total system's efficacy by 70% to 100% . reference presented the types of reflectors in solar energy systems will increase considerably, producing more energy (output) than previously.
Reference reviewed a utilization of a widely employed planar reflector, exemplified by the Aeroplan mirror in this study, has demonstrated its efficacy in significantly enhancing the power output of a two-way solar panel by around 26% in terms of annual performance.
Use of a reflector for focusing radiation on to the PV cells reduces the cost of solar electricity, thus allowing expensive PV cells to be replaced by considerably cheaper reflector material.
Solar power is the conversion of sunlight into electricity, either directly using photovoltaic (PV), or indirectly using concentrated solar power (CSP). The research has been underway since very beginning for the development of an affordable, in-exhaustive and clean solar energy technology for longer term benefits.
A sun which shines more from the front into the reflector sees a larger reflector (large aperture), and thus more power is collected. In the same way, a sun shining more from behind sees a smaller reflector and less power is collected. 2.7 m2 reflector can typically bring 1.2 lts of water to boiling point within 10 minutes.
