TERME PRÉFÉRENTIEL

SOLAR SIMULATORS  

DÉFINITION

  • Solar Simulators are generally used in laboratory or production environments for precision testing and/or calibration of light-sensitive (e.g., photovoltaic) devices. Solar simulators are also used on terrestrial, aerospace and satellite products as a long-term simulated sunlight exposure system to test optical coatings, thermal control coatings, paints, etc. Pulse simulators make it possible to test large solar panels at a fraction of the cost of steady state solar simulators. Because the temperature of the solar cells under test are held constant, the need for thermocouple testing is eliminated, resulting in savings in both time and cost. [Source: Spectrolab]
