Effect of color and nano film filters on the performance of solar photovoltaic module

Solar intensity and surface temperatures have a major impact on the performance of solar photovoltaic modules. Light spectrum has different wavelengths, and energy levels where each of them can affect the solar panel differently. The goal of this study is to investigate the effect of color filters and thermal insulating Nano films on the solar panel output characteristics. Two indoor experiments were conducted where four color filters and three types of insulating Nano films were tested on a photovoltaic module. The results showed that red color filters and Nano films, with a blocking rate of 20%, generated more electrical power than other solar filters. The results also showed that the surface temperature of the photovoltaic module was significantly decreased by applying certain color and Nano film filters. This research aims to improve the overall performance of the solar cell by controlling the solar intensity and decreasing the surface temperature through applying color and Nano film filters.
