Photovoltaic panels perform worse at low operating temperatures, it is bad for PV panel performance when operating temperatures are low and efficient. A portion of this spectrum is converted into electrical power when light rays strike the PV pane plate, while the remainder of the spectrum raises the temperature of the cell. About 75 to 80 percent of the light that reaches the screen increases the temperature of the cell. The effect of phase change material on operating temperature is investigated by simulating the thermodynamical equations involved in the heat transmission of the panel in the PCM domain. Temperature variation is accomplished for four different time periods of the day with various irradiation levels and environmental factors. In order to compare effectiveness at 25° C and a typical irradiation of 1000 W/M2, observations will be kept.
