… which converges to ~ 0.1% in 4 or 5 iterations, but will be ~ 0.6 V for almost any reasonable conditions . . . so to hell with the math!
In full sunlight, the solar energy flux is ~ 1Kw/m2, and 15% efficiency is normal, so

How much power can be delivered by a “small” package and not have it overheat?
ExampleYour trusty mechanical engineer has designed a cooling scheme that will allow a package having a volume of 0.027 m3 to dissipate 150 watts and keep the interior components below 55C.
Determine the power output capability and power density if your electrical design exhibits efficiencies of 80% and 90%.
