This study examined two solar panels with a high producing capacity of 250 W for performance enhancement utilizing several types of paraffin wax (RT57, RT61, and RT68) connected to the panel's rear surface. Two solar panels (one reference and one combined with PCM; PV-PCM) are used for outdoor tests. The current implementation is made with three types of PCM with a fixed thickness (3 cm) and...
