Abstract:

An additional mirror was added to the solar concentrator equipment so that is possible to make solar cell measurements at approximately 5 gm- caloriessq cmmin solar intensity. The concentrator was used to verify the sunlight power predictions made from tungsten power measurements during the P N bivariable experiment. A general equation was developed for the theoretical determination of the total cell series resistance from a knowledge of the values of the component resistances. The equations were utilized to predict the series resistance of produc tion type NP and NN cells.
