As a renewable and sustainable energy source, photovoltaic (PV) panels have made a big impact on the world's transition to clean energy. Nonetheless, one of the difficulties PV systems encounter is the efficiency loss brought on by high working temperatures. The jouissance of thermal range with yield has a discouraging effect on PV panel behavior since greater operating temperatures reduce solar panel effectiveness. This study looks into how phase transition material RT 35 (Rubitherm) lowers a solar panel's working temperature and tries to keep it at or near room temperature. By simulating the dynamical algorithms involved in the thermal energy transfer of the solar plate in the PCM arena, the impact of these material exchangers on operating temperature was examined. There are four distinct times of the day that are set aside for temperature variations along with different quantities of ambient light and radiation. Measurements will be recorded in order to compare efficiency at 25°C with a standard irradiation of 1000 W/M2.
