Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a solar panel with V_oc of 0.7V and I_sc of 5A. Calculate the fill factor if the maximum output power is measured at 3.5W. What does this say about the efficiency?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how power calculations relate to the fill factor.

Question 2

If a solar cell converts sunlight at an efficiency of 20% and receives 80W of sun power, what is the expected electrical output? Discuss the implications of this efficiency.

πŸ’‘ Hint: What does the percentage tell you about its performance?
