3. Outline
o Solar Water Heater
o Solar Dryer
o Solar PV cells
o Solar Concentrators
o Production of Solar PV cell
• Visit to “PCRET”
• Visit to “Tesla”
o Solar Car
o Assembling of Solar Panels
o Flexible Solar Panels
4. Solar Water Heater
“Device which use to heat water using solar
energy”
Storage tank Solar Collector
History
Tubes
Efficiency
Cost
6. Direct Solar Dryer
“Direct Solar Dryers expose the substance
to be dehydrated to direct sunlight”
In this Dryer the solar drying is assisted by
the movement of the air (wind) that
removes the more saturated air away from
the items being dried
7. Solar Natural Dryer
Cabinet type Solar
Dryer
Solar Tunnel Dryer
Green House Solar
Dryer
8. Indirect Solar Dryer
In indirect Solar Dryers, the black surface heats
incoming air, rather than directly heating the
substance to be dried
Transpired collector
type Hybrid
(Solar-biomass) Dryer
9. Solar PV Panels
“A solar cell, or photovoltaic cell, is an electrical device
that converts the energy of light directly
into electricity by the photovoltaic effect”
10. Solar Cooker
A solar cooker is a device which uses
the energy of direct sunlight to heat,
cook or pasteurize food or drink
11. Solar PV Cell
Photovoltaic cell, is an electrical device that converts
the energy of light directly into electricity by the
photovoltaic effect
12. Production of Solar Cell
PCRET Main Labs:
• Crystal Growth Lab
• Wafering Lab
• Cell Process Lab
• Lamination Lab
• Test and Measurement Lab
• Analysis Lab
16. Lamination Lab
Lamination Machine
o PN Module is making in
this lab
o Three (03) Laminations are
available in the Lamination
Lab to produce Photovoltaic
Panels of various dimension
and ratings
o Solar cells can be cut to
small pieces
Nd-YAG Laser Cutter
17. Test and Measurement Lab
Solar Cell Testing
Photovoltaic PV Panel Indoor Testing
Photovoltaic PV Array Outdoor / Field Testing
PV Panel Environmental Testing
PV Panel Insulation Testing
Solar Cell Contact Adhesion Testing
Inverter Testing
Battery Testing
Solar Flat Plate Collector Testing

18. Analysis Lab
The Spectroscopic analysis of the
semiconductor and other
geological materials is done for
detection of metallic and non
metallic impurities up to the level
of parts per million (PPM) and
parts per billion (PPB) level
ICP detects impurities using
options of Atomic Absorption,
Atomic Emission and Flameless
Techniques
Gas Chromatograph GC analyses
gases using FID and TCD
detectors
Inductivity Coupled Plasma (ICP) Spectrometer
Gas Chromatography (GC)
