Abstract

This paper presents the implementation of a generalized photovoltaic model using Matlab Simulink software package, which can be representative of PV cell, module, and array for easy use on simulation platform. The proposed model is designed with a user-friendly icon and a dialog box like Simulink block libraries. This makes the generalized PV model easily simulated and analyzed in conjunction with power electronics for a maximum power point tracker. Taking the effect of sunlight irradiance and cell temperature into consideration, the output current and power characteristics of PV model are simulated and optimized using the proposed model. This enables the dynamics of PV power system to be easily simulated, analyzed, and optimized. For Wind Turbine modeling and simulation of wind driven electricity generation system or WECS (an acronym for Wind Energy Conversion System) has been done. Our aim is to design and test a power 300W capacity, operating at 3 m/s to 6 m/s , induction permanent magnet generator Matlab simulation. The different components of a wind energy system namely the wind turbine, generator, rectifier, as per the scope of this project following which the design steps and modeling of the system in Matlab simulation environment Simulink was undertaken.
