When welding some base materials and for some service conditions, preheating and/or post-weld heat treatment may be a requirement. These types of thermal treatments are required to ensure suitable weld integrity and will typically prevent or remove undesirable characteristics in the completed weld.
We will consider some of the most common. Preheat, as defined within the AWS Standard Welding Terms and Definition, is “the heat applied to the base metal or substrate to attain and maintain preheat temperature”.
The thickness of silicon wafer is 160 μm, the thickness of PV copper strip is 0.1 mm, the thickness of Sn alloy coating is 15 μm and 25 μm respectively. The physical properties of materials used in solar cell welding are shown in Table 6.
If preheating is not carried out, a large differential in temperature can occur between the weld area and the parent material. This can cause rapid cooling, leading to the formation of martensite and probable cracking when welding some materials with high hardenability.
The preheat temperature is defined by the same document as “the temperature of the base metal in the volume surrounding the point of welding immediately before welding is started. In a multipass weld, it is also the temperature immediately before the second and subsequent passes are started” (Interpass Temperature).
Connection of Cells in Photovoltaic Modules. As shown in Fig. 5, the solar cells in the modules with different surface structures of welding strips have no cracks, and there is no open welding, false welding and desoldering, which indicates that it can be used for the subsequent research.
