| Abstract |
This paper considers selection of the suitable simulation model for solar panels [1]. Two models for silicon
polycrystalline photovoltaic solar cells [2], [3] were analysed. The selection is made by comparing the Power vs. Voltage and
Current vs. Voltage curves obtained from the simulation to those obtained experimentally. The goal is to identify if a simulation model gives correct
information about the behaviour of one single solar panel for varying temperature and irradiance. Final validation is done by
comparing experimental and simulation results. The single panel model was integrated into array of 16 elements. This can be integrated in the simulation of an isolated micro grid or in a hybrid energy system [4], [5] By comparing simulation results from both models with
experimental results we can conclude that model 2 is the most reliable one. |
