Self-recovering passive cooling utilizing endothermic reaction of NH4NO3/H2O driven by water sorption for photovoltaic cell

Abstract Power efficiency of photovoltaic cell is significantly affected by the cell temperature. Here, a self-recovering passive cooling unit is developed. The water-saturated zeolite 13X is coated on the back side of photovoltaic cell, and ammonium nitrate is dispersed as a layer to form a thin fi...
