Abstract
Correct extraction of the equivalent circuit model parameters of photovoltaic modules is of great significance for power prediction, fault diagnosis, and system optimization of photovoltaic power generation systems. Although there are many methods developed to extract the equivalent circuit model parameters of the photovoltaic module, it is still challenging to ensure the stability and operational efficiency of the extract method. In order to effectively extract the parameters of photovoltaic modules, this paper proposes a hybrid algorithm combining analytical methods and differential evolution algorithms for the extraction parameters of PV module. Firstly, the analytical method is applied to simplify the equivalent circuit model and improve the efficiency of the algorithm. Then, the adaptive algorithm is used to adjust the parameters of the differential evolution algorithm. Through the algorithm proposed in this paper, the parameters of the equivalent circuit model of the photovoltaic module can be extracted by the open-circuit voltage, short-circuit current, and maximum power point current and voltage provided by the manufacturer. The proposed method is applied to the extraction of the parameters of the dual-diode equivalent circuit model of different types of photovoltaic modules. The reliability and computational efficiency of the proposed algorithm are verified by comparison and analysis.
Highlights
With the emphasis on environmental and energy issues, photovoltaic power generation technology is widely used
These methods can be divided into two categories: one is the numerical solution method, and the analytical solution to the model is obtained through some empirical formulas and mathematical techniques
The aim of this paper is to develop a PV module parameter extraction algorithm that combines the analytical method with the improved differential evolution algorithm
Summary
With the emphasis on environmental and energy issues, photovoltaic power generation technology is widely used. Traditional photovoltaic module modeling uses singlediode models. Researchers have proposed a large number of modeling methods of this problem. These methods can be divided into two categories: one is the numerical solution method, and the analytical solution to the model is obtained through some empirical formulas and mathematical techniques. It is shorter, because the method usually ignores some parameters or uses empirical formulas to obtain some parameters. The other type uses the intelligent optimization algorithm, such as the differential evolution (DE) algorithm, particle swarm optimization
