Photovoltaics:
The word Photovoltaic is a combination of the Greek words for light and names physicist Allesandro Volta.
Defines the direct conversion of sunlight into energy through solar cells. The conversion process is based on fotoelekričnom effect discovered by physicists Alexandra Bequerela year 1839.
Photoelectric effect describes the release positivnih and negative charges when the light illuminate the surface.
How do solar cells
Solar
cells are made of various semiconductor materials
materijala.Poluvodići, which become electrically conductive when
illuminated or heated but they act as insulators at low temperatures. The primary raw material for the production of the sand which is plentiful.
Over 95% of all solar cells produced in the world are made by SI (Si). As
the second most common element on earth's surface silicon has the
advantage that it is available in sufficient quantities and does not
affect the environmental changes.
For
the production of semiconductor solar cells are polluted so (doping)
the deliberate release of chemical elements as the holder of a positive
or negative naboja.Kombinirajući two semiconductor layers with different
pollution resulting barrier, boundary between the two layers. On
this border creates an internal electric field that causes the release
of the carrier when cell osvjetljena.Kroz metal contacts can get an
electric discharge, if the external circuit is coming to the flow of
direct current.
Silicon
cells are approximately 10x10cm in size, transparent anti-reflective
film protects the cell and reduces losses due to reflection at the cell
surface.
The output voltage of the solar cell is temperature-dependent, the higher the temperature the lower voltage less utilization. Utilization level defines the amount of light with converted into useful electrical energy.
Types of solar cells
Solar
cells can be divided into three types according to the type of crystal
that is used: monocrystalline, polycrystalline and amorphous. For the production of monocrystalline cells requires absolutely pure semiconductors. Monocrystalline rods are made of fused silica and then cut into thin plates.
This production ensures a relatively high degree of efficiency, which reflects in the price of products. Production
of polycrystalline cells is cheaper manufacturing process, liquid
silicon is poured into blocks which are then cut into slabs. Because of the casting in the cooling process, a change of the structure of crystals uzrekuje lower efficiency solar cells.
If a silicon film applied to the second matter tpa glass or other carriers get called amorphous or "thin film" cells. The
thickness of the layer reaches a thickness of a human hair, thereby
reducing the cost of production because of lower costs
materijala.Iskoristivost amorphous cells is much lower than other solar
cells. Therefore, the use of power equipment less power.
Solar
modules are created by joining cells in series or parallel, certainly
connected in series modules provide a much higher voltage. After
that they fit into Viniyl Ethyl-acetate and embedded in aluminum or
steel frames and covered with a transparent glass front strane.Jamstvo
producers is reflected in Trajan guarantees for modules of 10-25 years.
Today's
power modules ranging from 5W to 350W per module and razlikju the
voltage 12/24/48 V modules by which must be adapted to other equipment.
The solar cells are no toxic substances do not produce smoke or make a noise, so very environmentally friendly. Electricity produced by the transducers is the same as in the household.
What
happens when there is no sunca.Sustav is able to work autonomously with
the stored energy in batteries (solar batteries). How long can we get
to work daily spending budget and the amount of stored energy, which
depends on the capacity and type of battery, maintenance and operational
requirements and definitely on the cost of equipment.
