Detailed modeling of two diode photovoltaic module using MATLAB simulik

Abstract

<p>This paper proposes an accurate model of Photovoltaic Module. The model is presented in details and simulated by Matlab Simulink. The PV module is presented as a two diode model with the series’ and parallels’ resistances. The method is used to obtain the parameters of the module by using data provided by the manufacturer. To verify the accuracy of the proposed model, a comparison is done between the present results and those in a previous paper in which the single diode detailed model was studied. The same type of modules (PWX 500) is used to compare and validate results. The weather data as illumination and temperature are taken as input variables when current and Power are output variables. For the validation of the proposed model, it is used to power a resistive load by using a boost converter controlled by à Maximum Power Point Tracking method. The proposed method is very detailed and can be useful for PV researchers for their works.</p>

A PSO Based MPPT Controller for Solar PV System at Variable Atmospheric Conditions

“…In this paper, a modified PSO algorithm based MPPT controller is developed to operate the boost converter and in order to show the effectiveness, and results are compared with well known P&O based MPPT controller. In [7], the entire solar PV-boost converter system PSO and P&O based MPPT controllers are designed and simulated in MATLAB, and also results are obtained at changing atmospheric conditions and compared for different controllers.…”

Evaluation of Power Performance of Solar Module Using Two Diode Model with MATLAB Simulation

“…Modules and arrays are created by the connection of cells in a demand based manner. The PV cell is represented by an electrical equivalent circuit according to the principal of semi-conductors [1]. In this model, the equivalent circuit has two resistances Rp and Rs.…”

“…Here Ip is the reverse saturation currents of both models and Is1 and Is2 are diode current and here ideal factors respectively A1 and A2. The purpose of the paper is to determine the power and simulate these modules by MATLAB Simulation [1]. Here diodes are connected parallel with source in this module.…”
