Abstract

Silicon photovoltaic converters are used in many industries and manufacturing. Reduction in their efficiency due to overheating is a big problem for ensuring reliable operation of high-tech equipment. Since the operating temperature affects the electrical efficiency of the solar cell, adequate and effective cooling is necessary for its good operation. Devices with high thermal efficiency, in which heat is transferred from the cell to the external environment through pulsating heat pipes, can be used to provide a suitable operating environment for the photovoltaic cell at low temperature. This process generates a significant amount of energy and maximizes the efficiency of the photovoltaic unit. In this study, we use copper finned pulsating heat pipes to sufficiently cool the cell and operate it at an optimal temperature, which improves the efficiency of the solar cell. Copper is used for pulsating heat pipes due to its high conductivity, which improves the performance. According to the study, pulsating heat pipes are the best choice for cooling the solar cell, which improves both its efficiency and the amount of energy it generates. Therefore, it is essential to use cooling systems to control their operating temperature. Technologies for passive cooling that require less maintenance and don't use extra electricity can be a good choice. This paper compiles and compares the substantial work of researchers using passive cooling strategies. Finding a suitable cooling method in light of environmental or geographic factors will also be clarified by the investigation. The issues that have not yet been resolved are mentioned, and papers pertaining to each particular passive approach are examined.
