Abstract

As the photovoltaics are fixed outdoor exposed to external meteorological conditions, which vary from one area to another, the atmospheric condition can be considered as the major factor in the impressive performance of the cells. Therefore, the efficiency and productivity of the PV cell vary from one location to another. The experts and photovoltaic manufacturers have identified parameters at which the PV modules give the maximum performance. These parameters are the solar intensity of 1000 W/m 2 , a temperature of 25 °C, and the air mass of 1.5. These air requirements are limited, and their presence together may be difficult if not impossible, for every area of their own conditions, which may increase or decrease compared to these requirements.
