- Abstract
The goal of cleaning snow from the surface of a photovoltaic array (PVA) is relevant for all regions where snow cover is present for several months. In winter, depending on climatic conditions, the amount of energy loss ranges from 10 to 100%. This paper presents the results of measuring the characteristics of the snow cover and the time of cleaning a PVA by a warm air jet, which constitutes a part of a photovoltaic station of 10 kW, located at the training ground of the Tashkent State Technical University. The results of model calculations are in satisfactory agreement with the results of measurements.
