Given : a solar plant having an output capacity of 1.0x10⁹ W that receives the energy of 0.20 kW/m² from the intensity from the sunlight over one complete day.
To Find :
how much should be the area of the solar energy thermal panels should be for photocells
that are operating at efficiency of 20.0%.
(a) 1.6x10⁴ m²
(b) 2.5x10⁷ m²
(c) 3.5x10⁴ m²
(d) 1.6x10² m²
Solution:
Let say Area should be x m²
Then intensity from the sunlight over one complete day = 0.2x kW
operating at efficiency of 20.0%
Hence output = (20/100) 0.2x = 0.04x kW
0.04x kW = 40x W ( as 1 kw = 1000 W)
40x = 1.0 * 10⁹
=> x = 1.0 * 10⁹/40
=> x = 100 * 10⁷/40
=> x = 2.5 * 10⁷ m²
area of the solar energy thermal panels = 2.5 * 10⁷ m²
