The Modeling of Solar Cells

Article Preview

Abstract:

The world is increasingly experiencing a great need for additional power resources so as to reduce dependency on conventional sources, and solar energy could be an answer to that need. However, the performance of solar energy depends on solar radiation, ambient temperature, and load impedance. A practical engineering mathematic model of solar cell is developed and a general simulation model of PV cell is created based on Simulink system, which is convenient to be applied to the research and development of solar cell.
