Description
A LUMINESCENT PHOTOVOLTAIC MODULE
The invention relates to a photovoltaic module used in particular for generating electric energy from solar energy.
For example, the patent description US 4149902 discloses a fluorescent concentrator of solar energy which comprises a flat (planar) glass or plastic module covered with layers of fluorescent material. Photovoltaic cells are situated along side edges of said module.
Moreover, the patent descriptions US 4227939 and US20090126778 disclose solar energy concentrators comprising modules in the form of cambered sheets.
The aim of the present invention is to devise a photovoltaic module which is simple and inexpensive to produce and highly effective in generating energy.
The present invention relates to a photovoltaic module comprising a luminescent solar concentrator utilised to convert solar light and at least one photovoltaic cell. The essence of the invention is that in said module the concentrator comprises a core to transport light and an absorber layer with a luminescent dye, wherein the refractive index of the absorber is lower than the refractive index of the core, and the
photovoltaic cell or cells are planary distributed on the surface of the module.
The photovoltaic cell can be mounted on the rear surface of the module, which is the surface opposite to the surface exposed to the sun radiation. It is also possible to mount the photovoltaic cell or cells on the front of the module if bifacial cells including a transparent rear electrode are used.
It is advisable that the thickness of the absorber layer be at least ten times smaller than the thickness of the core layer.
It is most preferable that the core be made from glass and the absorber be made from polymethyl methacrylate.
It is also advisable that the minimum width of a cell be expressed according to the following formula:
tan(90- (sm→(j¾))) wherein:
W - minimum width of the photovoltaic cell [ mm ] dl- thickness of the absorber [ mm ]
d2 - thickness of the core [ mm ]
nl- refractive index in the absorber
n2 - refractive index in the core.
It is also advisable that the side edges of the module be covered with a reflective coating transmitting light inside.
Preferably, the core of the module can have a multilayer structure.
It is also advisable that the module have an additional reflective coating behind the photovoltaic cell.
It is also advisable that the surface of the photovoltaic cells is 15 - 60% of the absorber surface.
The photovoltaic module according to the invention is very simple in terms of structure and is inexpensive to produce. The photovoltaic cell is mounted on the rear, flat surface of the module, which results in the fact that more solar radiation reaches the cell than in other devices known from the state of the art where photovoltaic cells are mounted on side edges of the module. Solar radiation reaches the photovoltaic cells both directly and indirectly, owing to the proposed at least two-layer structure of the module, wherein at least one layer doped with a luminescent dye and one layer being the core. It is most preferable that the absorber layer is made from acrylic polymer, whereas the core be made from glass, which results in an advantageous difference in refractive indices: nl app. 1.49 and n2 app. 1.50 to 1.58. This leads to an advantageous light path within the absorber - core structure. Owing to this when the
complete width of the cell is appropriate, all of the generated photons reach the photovoltaic cell because the whole energy transmitted through the core is periodically reflected by the surface. This results in higher efficiency of the module and permits to reduce the number of costly photovoltaic cells. Both the core and the absorber can be made from other materials, such as, for example, modified polycarbonate or polymethyl methacrylate, but the modifications must result in achieving the difference in refractive indices of core and absorber materials. Furthermore, the new structure of the module permits to increase the size of the modules due to the fact that the photovoltaic cells can be distributed in a more flexible manner.
According to the invention the dimensions of the modules can significantly exceed 100 - 150 cm without losing efficiency in generating energy. It has been empirically proven that it is most preferable that the surface of the photovoltaic cells is 15 - 60% of the absorber surface. Then cells can be distributed periodically, depending on the individual design in such a manner that average light paths from the place of absorption of light to the cell are optimal. What is more, so configured cells are additionally powered by the adjacent module fields. The closer the cells are distributed, the more efficient the module is. To further enhance the efficiency of the module, it can be equipped with reflective coatings. As experience shows efficiency of
a module also depends on the relation of the thickness of the absorber layer to the core layer, wherein it is advisable that the thickness of the absorber layer be at least ten times smaller than the thickness of the core layer and on the above mention relation concerning the minimum width of the cell. To improve the durability of the module it is advisable that the core have a multi-layer form.
The invention is presented in more detail in the following embodiments and in the attached schematic drawing, where fig. 1 shows a cross section of a part of the module in the first embodiment, fig. 2 shows a cross section of a part of the module in another embodiment, fig. 3 shows an embodiment of the core in the form of a multi-layer structure, fig. 4 shows a cross section of a part of the module in yet another embodiment with a schematically marked route of photons (of light) within the module, fig. 5 is a schematic front view of the module with an exemplary distribution of cells, and fig. 6 shows another cross section of the module with reflective coatings.
The photovoltaic module 1 according to the invention comprises a core 2 used to transfer light and an optically connected therewith absorber layer 3 doped with a luminescent dye (fig. 1) which performs the function of a luminescent concentrator. The refractive index of the absorber is smaller
than the refractive index of the core. There is at least one photovoltaic cell 4 on the side of the absorber layer 3. Said cell 4 is planary mounted on the rear surface of the module 1 which means it is on the opposite side to the surface exposed to the sun radiation.
Fig. 2 shows the photovoltaic module 1 in another embodiment, wherein the photovoltaic cell 4 is also planary mounted on the rear surface of the module 1 but the core 2 and the absorber layer 3 are reversed in relation to the embodiment shown in fig. 1 and the photovoltaic cell 4 is mounted on the core 3.
Fig. 4 shows the photovoltaic module 1 in another embodiment similar to the embodiment shown in fig. 1, but the photovoltaic cell 4 is mounted in a recess in the absorber layer 3 in such a manner that it creates one layer with the absorber layer.
As for the embodiments presented above the core 2 may be made as a monolithic layer or as a multi-layer structure comprising several layers, at least two. For example, fig. 3 shows the core 2 consisting of three layers 2a, 2b, 2c. The multilayer structure enhances the durability of the core 2 and therefore the durability of the module 1 is enhanced as well.
Fig. 5 shows a schematic exemplary distribution of an array of the photovoltaic cells 4 on the module 1. However, this example does not limit the scope of the invention in any way.
The effectiveness of the photovoltaic module according to the invention increases when the following conditions are fulfilled, and each of the conditions as well as all of them in any configuration refer to all of the above embodiments:
- thickness dlof the absorber layer 3 is at least 10 times smaller than the thickness of the core layer 2;

- the minimum width of the photovoltaic cell is expressed according to the following formula:
2 X (dl + d2)
w = =—
tan(90 - (sin-H¾))) wherein:
