The problem of increasing the efficiency of a photoelectric module operating at increased ambient temperature is considered. The aim of this work is to investigate the thermal state of a photoelectric module with cooling by a slot radiator. The problem of constructing a mathematical model of thermal regime of a photoelectric module with slot-radiator cooling operation at increased ambient temperature is considered. Its experimental investigations were carried out at various initial data. The results showed that the temperatures of photovoltaic module body, obtained on the basis of both simulation and calculation, approximately coincide. At the same time, the proposed model makes it possible to solve the problem of lowering the temperature in the body of a photoelectric module functioning at increased temperature of surrounding environment.
