MODELLING OF A PHOTOVOLTAIC PANEL AND VALIDATION OF THE MODEL
Project no. 570 · Status: Kapanmış · 2016
Summary
Solar energy is one of the most important renewable energy sources. Electricity production directly from the sun is based on photovoltaic effect. In this field, nowadays, new devolopments have been seen, and especially efficiency issue have been taken into consideration deeply. As use of photovoltaic technology becomes important, studies on simulation models are increasing. Depending on ambient conditions such as temperature and solar radiation etc., power outputs of the solar energy systems are changing. In this study, mathematical modelling of a photovoltaic panel is used, and simulation studies of the model are done in a PC environment. Power-Voltage (P-V) and Current-Voltage (I-V) characteristics of the photovoltaic panel are investigated under the changing ambient conditions.
