Presentation / Conference Contribution
Siyabi, I. A., Shanks, K., Mallick, T., & Sundaram, S. (2017, May). Thermal analysis of a multi-layer microchannel heat sink for cooling concentrator photovoltaic (CPV) cells. Presented at 13TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON CONCENTRATOR PHOTOVOLTAIC SYSTEMS (CPV-13), Ottawa, Canada

Concentrator Photovoltaic (CPV) technology is increasingly being considered as an alternative option for solar electricity generation. However, increasing the light concentration ratio could decrease the system output power due to the increase in the...

Reliability investigation for a built ultrahigh concentrator prototype (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Shanks, E., Senthilarasu, S., & Mallick, T. (2017, May). Reliability investigation for a built ultrahigh concentrator prototype. Presented at 13TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON CONCENTRATOR PHOTOVOLTAIC SYSTEMS (CPV-13), Ottawa, Canada

Ultrahigh concentrator photovoltaics hold a great potential in both reducing the cost of photovoltaic energy and to higher conversion efficiencies. The challenges in their design and manufacturing however have not yet permitted a reliable ultrahigh (... Read More about Reliability investigation for a built ultrahigh concentrator prototype.
