High-temperature operation of solar cells is of interest to future NASA missions.Technology solutions such as off-pointing can reduce operating temperature, but alsoreduce power from the array. New solar cells that can operate at high temperature aredesirable; this requires development of high bandgap semiconductors.
High-intensity solar array: A secondary solar array (Fig. 14.7) was then incorporated to power the mission at the high-intensity portion of the mission, operating inside 0.25 AU. Since at this distance the intensity was high, the secondary solar array could be much smaller. This power supply used high-efficiency triple-junction solar cells
Extending the temperature range of operation for solar arrays is highly desirable for extending the range of operation of space missions to the near-Sun environment [5e7]; interestingly, high temperatures help prevent arcing of solar arrays .
There are experimental results available for melting/solidification of low or medium temperature PCM ( Motahar et al., 2017 ), ( Mehta et al., 2019 ).However, experiments are yet to be performed for high-temperature PCM like silicon. Hence, numerical study is the most preferred method to analyze high-temperature LHS system ( Kant et al., 2018 ).
