Abstract

In this paper a reflective structure is proposed and modeled by the authors to increase the irradiance on solar panels. In such a way, an increase irradiance factor is obtained and it can be used to analyze the behavior of the panel in terms of efficiency, output power and temperature. The proposed reflective structure consists of mirrors whose magnitudes at both orientation and dimensions will be determined through mathematical equations. During the modeling process, factors of great importance have been considered, such as the behavior of the different types of solar concentrators currently in existence, in order to analyze the reflective effect of the same and apply it. The proposed solution can increase solar panel irradiation in up to 60%.
