Abstract: This research empirically and theoretically assessed the performance of a solar photovoltaic (PV) panel in five different cooling configurations under the weather conditions of Sanandaj, Iran in September 2018. The findings indicated that, compared to the simple PV mode, the increased mean electrical efficiencies over the whole experiment were 0.27%, 0.5%, 0.72%, 0.6, and 0.88% for the PV/w-XP, PV/w-XD, PV/w-2XDP, PV/a,and PV/b-2XDP modes, respectively.
