Development of a spectral dependent electrical & thermal model for high concentrating photovoltaic (HCPV) receivers

High concentrating photovoltaic (HCPV) systems employ III-V multijunction (MJ) solar cells. Such solar cells are monolithically connected in-series and therefore present a strong dependence on the solar spectrum variations. In addition, the concentrated solar flux contributes to the heat generation...
