ANALISIS PENGARUH JELAGA KNALPOT DAN DEBU PASIR TERHADAP DAYA KELUARAN PANEL SURYA FOTOVOLTAIK JENIS MONOKRISTALIN 10 WP
Photovoltaic solar panels are one of the technologies used to convert solar energy into electrical energy. However, the performance of solar panels can decrease due to pollutants attached to the panel surface, such as exhaust soot and sand dust. This study aims to analyze the effect of exhaust soot and sand dust on the current, voltage, and output power of a 10 Wp monocrystalline photovoltaic solar panel. The experiment was conducted using three solar panels under different conditions: a panel without treatment, a panel with exhaust soot, and a panel with sand dust. The exhaust soot and sand dust were filtered using a mesh size of less than 425 µm, with each pollutant weighing 15 grams. Data collection was carried out for ten days from 09.00 WIB to 16.00 WIB at one-hour intervals. The measured parameters included solar irradiance, panel temperature, voltage, current, and output power. Based on the test results, the highest power output occurred at 12.00 WIB. The untreated panel produced 9.92663 W, the panel with exhaust soot produced 2.52866 W, and the panel with sand dust produced 5.00558 W. The results show that pollutants on the solar panel surface can reduce the output power, with the greatest effect occurring on the panel treated with exhaust soot. This is caused by the characteristics of soot particles, which are finer, sticky, oily, and have strong adhesion to the glass surface of the solar panel, allowing them to cover the panel surface more densely than sand dust. In addition, the black color of soot absorbs more heat, increasing the panel surface temperature and reducing the overall performance of the solar panel.
