Abstract
An automatic cooling for a PV panel is necessary to reduce the solar panel surface temperature and to avoid overheating that can lead to the destruction of a PV cell. The automatic design cooling is equipped with a thermostat as the temperature sensor. The automatic cooling consists of a thermostat, a microcontroller to regulate a pump and to flow water on the surface of the solar panel. The reference temperature is set to 36oC, and when the surface temperature exceeds the reference temperature, the pump will flow the water, and the heat is gradually reduced. The pump is off when the surface temperature is less than 36oC. The data application of automatic cooling was taken from 08.30 AM to 03.30 PM. The average power output for automatic cooling is 21.9 W, and the normally installed panel is 19.0 W. The difference in the average output power is 2.9 W. The panel with the automatic cooling system has higher efficiency (3.420) compared to the normally installed panel (3.020), with the difference of 0.494. The application of automatic cooling is economically beneficial due to its output power and efficiency superior compare to the normally installed panel.
