Abstract:

Solar power generation system has been erected at KMUTT. Learning Exchange Building (LX Building) has solar panels that can generate 40 kW of electricity, which may be utilized inside the structure. In terms of conservation and energy efficiency the LX Building is regarded as a green prototype. In order to determine if it would be feasible to expand the usage of the solar cell system in other university building, it has been tested and measured. Temperature, humidity, and the intensity of solar radiation all crucial elements in the functioning of the solar cell power generation system were investigated and analyzed. According to the measurement data, the average solar radiation intensity for the test day was 442.22 W/m2 the maximum was 704.56 W/m2 at 12:00 P.M. and the minimum was 89.32 W/m2 at 6:00 A.M. Throughout the test period, the average ambient temperature was 30 OC, with the peak recorded at 12:00 P.M. at 33 OC and the lowest at 6:00 A.M. at 29.5 OC. The average relative humidity for the test period was 59%Rh, with the highest and lowest values being 65%Rh and 50%Rh, respectively. On August 9, 2024, the greatest power that the solar cell system could generate was measured and expressed as 80.33% for 32.13 kW at 12:00 P.M. The lowest number, in relation to the installation value was 0.09 kW at 6:00 A.M. while the average amount of electricity produced by the solar cell system during the day was 13.16 kW. According to the findings of the analysis of the total amount of power that the solar cell system can generate daily between July 27, 2024, and August 25, 2024, the maximum amount of electricity that the system can generate was 202.27 kWh/day, while the lowest amount was 116.14 kWh/day. It was discovered that the total amount of electricity that the solar cell system could generate during the course of the study would be 4,663.66 kWh/month. Furthermore, it was discovered that the solar cell system’s monthly average total electricity production was 155.46 kWh.
