The results reveal that both panel technologies exhibit closely matched energy and exergy efficiencies, with a slight preference observed for monocrystalline panels. The impact of environmental variables on panel performance is significant, with temperature negatively affecting efficiency, while increased solar irradiance positively enhances energy and exergy production. Wind speed plays a cooling role, thereby augmenting electrical energy generation for both panel types.

The employment of combined windings with a doubled number of parallel structures makes it possible to change the number of parallel branches of the winding in a larger range. In practice, the theoretical advantages of combined windings are not always achievable in three-phase electric motors, since conditions of parallel operation should be fulfilled for effective joint operation of the star–triangle windings. Failure to comply with the conditions leads to degraded efficiency of electric motors. The combined windings in three-phase electric motors should be selected based on a refined electromagnetic analysis. An algorithm for calculating combined windings with a serial connection of star–triangle windings is proposed. The refined harmonic analysis of magnetomotive forces, differential scattering, and the distribution of magnetic field induction in the gap confirmed that the influence of higher spatial harmonics is decreased when using combined windings.
