4 FAQs about [Fitting curve of silicon photovoltaic cell]
Do solar cells have a series resistance?
The series resistance of a solar cell dominates fill factor losses, especially in large area commercial solar cells, so an accurate measurement is vital in quantifying losses. There are several methods to measure series resistance and the comparisons of the accuracy for specific cell types. 1 2
Can a Thévenin circuit be constructed without a diode?
A Thévenin or Norton equivalent circuit can only be constructed in the absence of non-linear elements such as diodes. The blue points are measured data and the blue line is a double diode fit. Curve fitting only works so long as the externally seen Rs is constant, which is rarely the case in practice.
Does curve fitting work if rs is constant?
Curve fitting only works so long as the externally seen Rs is constant, which is rarely the case in practice. The simplest way to demonstrate the problems caused by the deviations from the one dimensional model is with the model shown below 3. Here only part of the cell is affected by a series resistance as shown in the figure below:
How does a solar cell work?
A solar cell is a three dimensional device and can be thought of as a network of resistors and diodes. As the level of current changes so does the apparent series resistance. A Thévenin or Norton equivalent circuit can only be constructed in the absence of non-linear elements such as diodes.
