Abstract

This study investigates the enhancement of thermal management in photovoltaic (PV) systems by implementing a modified setup with copper pipes and an aluminium-based adhesive to boost thermal conductivity. Conducted over a four-month period at the Hungarian University of Agriculture and Life Sciences, the research examined the impact of varying cooling flow rates, insulation levels, and inlet temperatures on the working temperature of a modified PV system. Findings demonstrate that full insulation significantly raises working temperatures up to 67%, while lower inlet temperatures and increased cooling flow rates effectively decrease them to 11,54% and 18,97% respectively. The results suggest that optimizing thermal management can enhance PV efficiency in high-temperature environments, promoting the system's resilience and efficiency in diverse climatic conditions.
