The main purpose of this paper is to model, simulate, and improve the performance of different 9 × 9 PV array configurations under different Partial Shading Conditions (PSCs) in order to extract the maximum power by defeat the mismatching power losses. Hence, PSCs reduces the performance of Photovoltaic (PV) arrays and increase the Local Maximum Power Points (LMPPs) on output characteristics P-V due to mismatching power losses between the PV panels. For this, Total-CrossTied (TCT) , and proposed Magic Square View (MSV) PV array topologies are considered for the study under Short Narrow shading patterns. PV array configurations enhancements and theirinvestigations are carried out with regard to the comparison of the Global peak of outlet power (GP).The parameters of the PV array configurations are performed in MATLAB/Simulink software.

Configuration Scheme

This paper investigates the performances of different photovoltaic (PV) array under several shading condition. Four types of photovoltaic array configuration scheme which are ‘Series’ (S), Series-Parallel’ (SP), Total-Cross-Tied’ (TCT), and ‘Bridge-Link’ (BL) array topologies were tested by applying a 6x6 PV array under 6 different shading scenarios. The modeling is developed using Matlab/Simulink. The performances and output characteristics of photovoltaic array are compared and analyzed. System engineer can use the detailed characteristics of different array configuration to approximate the outcome power and pick the best configuration of the system by concerning the current natural condition to enhance the overall efficiency.

And Performance

In this paper, modeling and performance analysis of conventional configurations are Series-Parallel (SP), BridgeLinked (BL), Honey-Comb (HC), Total-Cross-Tied(TCT) and proposed hybrid configurations are SP-TCT, BL-TCT, HC-TCT, BL-HC and modified BL(MBL), modified HC(MHC), proposed optimal interconnection type configurations of a 5x5 size solar PV array under ten different partial shading cases it causes shading losses and compare the best configuration with respect to array power, number of interconnections or ties required between shaded modules in the array. The proposed optimal interconnection method reduces the number of ties required between modules and these ties are based on the position of number of shaded modules in the entire solar PV array. For the performance analysis of above 11 configurations, total ten shading cases are considered and compare the result with one un-shaded case-U of an irradiance 1000 W/m2 . The PV module parameters of Vikram Solar ELDORA 270 are used for modeling of above 11 conventional and proposed PV array configurations and simulate the models in MATLAB/ Simulink software.

Simulation Results

Non-uniform conditions on the modules of the PV array, especially, partial shading reduces the output of the PV array to a large extent. The shaded module in a string limits the current of the entire string and hence, the output power of the string.  The output power under such conditions is reported to be higher for total-cross-tied (TCT) configuration. This paper describes two different approaches, one based on current compensation (current equalization) and another based on voltage equalization, to extract higher power from the partially shaded total-cross-tied photovoltaic array. The TCT configuration is considered to minimize the number of converters, sensors, cost and complexity involved. The additional converters in the two distinct approaches evaluated here operate only when the partial shading occurs and are controlled to minimize the current and voltage miss-matches. The analysis and the control algorithm are presented. Simulation results obtained in MATLAB/Simulink are included to demonstrate the effectiveness of both methods and the relative merits and demerits of these approaches are highlighted.
