TITLE A Review of Lunar Surface for Photovoltaic Systems and a Possible Cooling Method |
ABSTRACT The long envisioned lunar solar power station would require an efficient cooling system that works by exploiting the features of the lunar environment . Firstly, the efficiency of PV cells with respect to temperature has been discussed. The basic features of the moon are then discussed by presenting the results of various studies along with suitability of PV cells in particular regions. Various favorable anomalies were observed for placement of PV Cells and possible habitation. Finally, a possible passive cooling system and its fundamental theory is presented |
