    Current limit through solar cell (forward bias)

    Thank you for that reply. The goal of the test is not to see if cells are deteriorating. It is to check if a solar module can be used as a heating plate to achieve temperatures of around 60C indoors by forcing current through the cells. My question was to make sure that this does not lead to...

    Current limit through solar cell (forward bias)

    I want to perform an experiment where I simulate outdoor module temperature indoors. Since the module will be running at Imp and the worst possible case would be at Isc outdoors, I can push Isc through to increase the module temperature indoors. But the ambient temperature indoors would not be...

    Current limit through solar cell (forward bias)

    How much current can be forced through a photovoltaic (solar) cell before its performance starts to deteriorate? In certain accelerated lifetime testing 1.25xIsc is forced through a solar module while it sits inside a chamber (no incident light). Is there a theoretical limit to the amount of...
