Abstract

In this paper an approach to model different types of PV modules using single diode model is presented. The proposed method utilizes the characteristics of diode ideality factor, shunt resistance and series resistance independently for developing accurate solar PV model. Apart from this, the proposed model utilizes experimental values obtained from the solar array simulator for validating the proposed approach. The procedure mainly focuses on developing an accurate method for thin film solar modules using a simplified approach. The proposed model is implemented in MATLAB and is verified with existing model. The experimental results are obtained from a 2 Kw CHROMA solar array simulator.
