Multiphysics Simulation for Solar Energy Applications - Archived

The design and development of solar energy infrastructure such as photovoltaic cells, solar panels, power generators, and transmission lines involve accounting for a number of different physics phenomena as well as operating conditions. Multiphysics simulation not only helps us understand how these components perform in a real-world environment, but also allows for a more efficient R&D process and a shorter time-to-market.
