Sorry I was unsure where to submit this thread.
I am doing a school project on designing a solar system for my home and I was wondering how the efficiency of a cell is calculated.
The way I calculated it, which i read of a website is...
1. calculate area of cell (in meters)
2. divide watt of cell by area = efficiency.
Area: 61.39*41.18in2 = 2 528.0402 in2 = 2 528.0402*(0.0254)2 meters2 = 1.63099042 m2.
Total watt: 327
Efficiency = 327 / 1.63099042 = 200.491674.
What I am doing wrong?
The efficiency of my panel is 20-21 %
HERE ARE THE DIM OF MY PANEL
