The use of solar energy has become one of the best energy-saving techniques that is used by many countries today. In
most residential and industries you can probably large flat panels that
are made of photovoltaic cells that lay facing the sun in their front
or back. These
are known as solar panels, the device used to collect solar energy from
the sun during the day to generate and supply electricity.
As the number of people who are raised with solar panel, more and more people have also begun the science behind that explore how solar panels work. The solar collector consists essentially of silicon wafer-based silicon cells or storing the heat energy taken from the sun. This heat energy is known as photons. Photons generated in the center of the sun as atoms merge. It takes one million years for photons, work its way to the surface of the sun. Once he is free, it runs through the room as fast to the earth in 8 minutes.
When the silicon is stripped down, it transfers electrons to convert the heat energy into electricity. The loaded silicon contributes 8 electrons. Once the electrons are combined with photons which combine solar panels through the conductive wires so that the current between the two plates.
The conductive wires are interconnected and are transition metals, such as silver and copper, to pass current. Each electrical connection made in series in order to reach a specific voltage. According to surveys, the best achieved sunlight conversion rate is 20% generating between 75% to 100% performance in homes and other commercial industries.
Below are some benefits that you will benefit with solar panels as a source of electricity.
- Provides free energy, so you save money on your electricity bill - Creates a hedge against inflation electrical costs by almost 7% per year - Increases the value of your home - It is environmentally friendly because it does not produce any pollution
There are several solar panel designs. Most of the modern solar panels are today concentrators. These are lenses that focus the light to the use of cells which allow a high cost per unit area. Some designs split the light into different wavelengths in order to cover an entire solar spectrum, thereby preventing solar energy is wasted. The energy density of the solar module by the peak power per unit area, which are generally in units of watts per square foot (W/ft2) is expressed measured....
