NOVELTY - Photovoltaic module comprises two components adhered together, held in a special frame (1) with the necessary electrical connections. A through-flow water cooling unit is included. The glass/glass module is dimensioned in accordance with the type of photovoltaic cell. Single-layer safety glass is used. The photovoltaic cell comprises silicon foil and silicon cells, with externally-led current strips (7). The cooler assembly fastened at the rear, is made from pressed metal sheet (8)    USE - A photovoltaic module with liquid cooling.    ADVANTAGE - The new panel overcomes numerous disadvantages of prior art. It reaches its full energy recovery potential, yet is simple to engineer. It can be manufactured economically. At the same time, adequate serviceability is provided for. Processes include simple bonding operations, and deep drawing of the cooling channel sheet. The design allows all connections to be made invisibly.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - A permanent watertight seal is made to the upper surface, using an ultraviolet-resistant two-part adhesive (3). The corrosion-resistant sheet includes impressed, deep-drawn U-shaped channels (9) on its rear, with wide surfaces resting against or adhered to the glass. The sheet has flow and return connections (11, 12). A vent valve (13) is fitted to the highest point of the cooler, or venting is on an external section of the return line (14). The glass module and cooling unit are fitted compactly in corresponding recesses of the frame (1), which includes screw channels (2) in e.g. aluminum. An electrical connection profile extends over the entire width of the module. It has extruded-on sealing lips (17) to hold a module socket (16) and is integrated for the cabling of individual modules. A cover with electrical connection profile is clipped-on or screwed-on. The socket is held by clips which can be slid over the entire profile width. The necessary diodes (21) are fitted using cooling fin clips made of extruded aluminum, to prevent overheating. The profile and frame together surround the cooling unit. Spacing for thermal expansion depends on the side to which the profile is fitted.
