<p>THERMAL ENDURANCE TESTING APPARATUS AND OF THE DISCLOSUREApparatus and methods for testing the thermal endurance of a glass substrate 113 of a photovoltaic module 110 are provided. The apparatus 100 generally includes, in one embodiment, a testing chamber 102 defining an interior space 103 having an interior atmosphere. A refrigeration unit 106 is operably positioned with the testing chamber 102 to control the interior atmosphere's temperature. A mounting system 111 is positioned within the interior space 103 of the testing chamber 102 and configured to hold the photovoltaic module 110 while exposing the glass substrate 113 of the photovoltaic module 110. An edge cooling system 116 is positioned in relation to the mounting system 111 such that the photovoltaic module 110 held by the mounting system has a first side edge 114 in contact with the edge cooling system 116. A light system 150 is also positioned within the interior space 103 of the testing chamber 102 to illuminate the glass substrate 113 of the photovoltaic module 110.[Figure 1]</p> |
