BEHAVIOURAL PATTERN OF SOLAR FILTER ENHANCED PHOTOVOLTAICS IN MANGROVE SWAMP

Abstract

It is not always true that solar cells perform better across the board. Certain colors induce electrons inside the cell to writhe and twist, raising the temperature and making the cell less effective. To address this issue, solar cells must be subjected to a variety of light bands in order to identify those that make them less effective. The goal of this scientific investigation is to discover what happens when solar power, solar flux, and photovoltaic (PV) panels with changing solar filters are all combined. One of the objectives is to discover the filter that increases the power and efficiency of PV panels. Solar power and solar flux meters were used to measure how much solar power and solar flux struck the surface of the PV module. Color filters were utilized in the wavelength selection process. A smart photovoltaic maximum power point tracker was used to determine the maximum voltage, current, and efficiency of the PV module for a given amount of solar power and flux. Outside, real-time experimental observations of shifting solar power and irradiance were made. The results showed steady voltages and sites of rise. There were also filters that kept voltages stable at lower solar power levels (400 W/m2 for the orange and blue filters, and 45 Klx for the lemon filter). According to the data, when the amount of solar radiation increases, the module's effectiveness decreases below the red filter. In terms of sun power, both the natural spectrum and the red filter produced greater energy. However, as the amount of solar power increased, so did the module's efficiency. The natural spectrum is to blame for this. This study demonstrated that the frequency and kind of radiation to which a solar module is subjected might affect how well it operates and behaves.
