Original Abstract

In concentrator cells, light is concentrated using lens to fall on solar cells to deliver maximum possible energy. By using concentrator cells light intensity is increased by targeting on certain area, which in result increases electricity production. Design and optimization of cooling equipment for heating concentrator solar cells is realized by SolidWorks and Flow Simulation systems. The device is analyzed on the flow and heat transfer to optimize the functional sample.
