Abstract

This paper discusses the application of copper pulsating heat pipe as passive thermal management on solar cell panel. In this study, an analysis of 30 Wp polycrystalline solar panel surface temperature with heat pipe is discussed. A 1000 W halogen lamp is used to illuminate and heat the solar panel indoor at 50 cm distance. To measure the surface temperature of solar panel, six thermocouples are installed at different positions. On the heat pipe, five thermocouples are installed at various positions. The heat pipe is mounted on the back-center of the solar panel. The passive thermal management using heat pipe shows that there is a decrease in the average surface temperature of the solar panel by 6.33 oC. Thus, the heat pipe can be used as passive thermal management on 30 Wp solar panel.
