Solar PV Modelling and Parameter Extraction Using Iterative Algorithms

Abstract

In the present work, improvement of Newton’s method with high order convergence has been suggested. This improvement is based on Two-Point Bracketing method. The proposed method Inverse Quadratic Interpolation method requires two steps per iteration. By means of the numerical equation of the one diode model of PV equivalent circuit, included five values of R from 1 to 5 ohms (load resistance of the circuit). The results obtained explain that the new suggested technique is easy to use, more accurate and efficient than other numerical methods are presented here.
