Supervisor
Prof. Dr. Ulf Blieske
Projektbeschreibung
Cologne University of Applied Sciences has recently started a program which investigates oblique incidence light and low radiation behavior of different solar modules. A number of module parameters are measured as a function of incident angle and radiation in a test installation on the roof top of the Universities library. Out of these data, the annual energy yield of the PV-systems can be calculated with the help of computer simulation tools.
