Original Abstract

This contribution deals with a study of the thermal properties of systems which consist of different types of materials: poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), thermal insulator Aerotherm, and phase change material Micronal. The aim of this study is to evaluate the ability of these materials to decrease the working temperature of solar cells and therefore to increase their quantum efficiency.
