Researchers in Switzerland have investigated the impact behaviour of ice balls on an aluminium Hopkinson bar at different velocities, diameter and temperature. Researchers from the University of Applied Sciences and Arts of Southern Switzerland have conducted a series of tests to assess the impact of ice balls on solar modules with the aim of improving the standards for measuring their hailstone safety resistance. In the paper "An experimental investigation of ice ball impact behavior to improve PV panel hailstone safety," published in the International Journal of Impact Engineering, they explained ...Den vollständigen Artikel lesen ...
