What would you recommend for a simulation software to build a water based solar photovoltaic cooling system model with all major components specified with certain dimensions and capacities? The result of such a simulation model when built with this software should effectively be used as a source of comparison towards validation with observed results from an experimental test stand for the mentioned system at a desert location in North Africa.
For a system of this type you will have to develop the parameters in a software like Matlab, you can opt for the Simulink tool.
To do so, you must have the following minimum parameters:
1- Get the temperature and irradiance data for a certain period in the region you want, there must be something solarimetric map of the region in internet;
2 - Information of a specific model of panel that you will use, as it will verify the influence of temperature;
3 - Verify how the system will be implemented and how it will work, predicting how much the temperature will decrease;
Dear Lucas,
Thank you for your time, suggestion and informative answer, I shall consider your response.
Best Regards,
