The fundamental component of a PV array is the solar cell. Solar cells are manufactured using several types of semiconductor materials eg silicon and germanium; these semiconductor materials produce an electric charge when exposed to direct sunlight. Solar cells can be connected in series and/or parallel to form PV modules.
The RTDS PV array model includes the option to estimate the unknown solar cell parameters using either an analytical method or an iterative method. 3. Analytical method for solar cell parameter estimation For the single diode, four parameter model, the four unknown parameters are estimated using the following analytical expressions .
The solar cell parameters are as follows; Short circuit current is the maximum current produced by the solar cell, it is measured in ampere (A) or milli-ampere (mA). As can be seen from table 1 and figure 2 that the open-circuit voltage is zero when the cell is producing maximum current (ISC = 0.65 A).
Several models have been developed to describe the I–V characteristic of solar cells, but only two models are used in practice i.e. single diode model and double diode model (Askarzadeh and Rezazadeh, 2013).
A typical module will have 36/72 cells connected in series. The PV modules are then combined in series and parallel to form PV arrays. The combination of individual solar cells into PV arrays enables large values of voltages and currents to be obtained at the terminals of a PV array.
In a single diode model, a complete characteristic of a PV cell’s can be described by five model parameters i.e.: light generated current, leakage or reverse saturation current, diode quality factor, series resistance and shunt resistance.
