Abstract
The performance of a photovoltaic cell (PV) not only depends on the irradiance of the light but also depends on the surrounding temperature where it is installed. Solar is one of the innovative devices among photovoltaic cells. It is noticed that by increasing operating temperature, the efficiency of a photovoltaic solar cell decreases nearly 0.5% / oC. Due to the rise in ambient temperature, it declines open circuit voltage, fill factor, generated power, overall efficiency etc. sharply. It creates an unbounded damage both for monocrystalline and polycrystalline photovoltaic cells applied for power usage. To restrain these limitations and get the functionate temperature specified by the industrialist proper cooling methods should be used mandatorily. Till now, it has not mentioned a detailed analysis on various cooling methods for photovoltaic solar cells to get a good outcome. This review paper represents an indication of several active and passive cooling ways such as air cooling , water cooling, heat pipe cooling, cooling by phase change materials, cooling by nanofluid fins, geographical position etc. briefly to improve the PV cell performance economically.
