Effect of Temperature and Humidity on the Degradation Rate of Multicrystalline Silicon Photovoltaic Module

In a PV module, the relative humidity (rh) of a front encapsulant is different from that of a backside encapsulant (rhback). In this study, the effective humidity (rheff) in a PV module was investigated to study the effects of moisture variation on the degradation rate (RD). rheff represents uniform...
