Photovoltaic (PV) cells are modeled using numerical methods to illustrate the performance of the voltage and the current generated by the PV cell/Module. Those two quantities, voltage and current, depend on some manufacturing and environmental parameters such as the temperature and the incident irradiance. Accordingly, this paper shows the impact of such parameters on the electric behavior of PV cells/Modules. An electronic circuit, made up of a photocurrent source, a junction diode, a series and a shunt resistances represent the PV cell considered within this paper. Within this paper, a Matlab/Simulink model of a PV cell/module is presented. To validate the Matlab/Simulink model of the PV cell/module, real data of the AEGAS-P605-250 PV module is implemented in PVsyst. 6.6.3 tool to highlight the effect of manufacturing and climate parameters on the electric behavior of the module.

A photovoltaic (PV) model is proposed on Matlab/Simulink environment considering the real atmospheric conditions and this PV model is tested with different PV panels technologies (monocrystalline silicon, polycrystalline silicon, and thin film). The meteorological data of Istanbul—the location of the study—such as irradiance, cell temperature, and wind speed are taken into account in the proposed model for each technology. Eventually, the power outputs of the PV module under real atmospheric conditions are measured for resistive loading and these powers are compared with the results of proposed PV model. As a result of the comparison, it is shown that the proposed model is more compatible for monocrystal silicon and thin-film modules; however, it does not show a good correlation with polycrystalline silicon PV module.

This paper emphasizes on the model verification of the electrical performance of a Photovoltaic (PV) cell module by MATLAB/Simulink simulation. The developed model can then be used to predict the PV cell behavior under different physical and environmental parameters such as solar irradiation, ambient temperature, series resistor, shunt resistor, diode saturation current and cell arrangement. Photovoltaic cell model is used for comparing the electrical characteristics for this modeling process. Kyocera PV module is used as the module specification, whereby a PV model can be easily generalized to predict the output current, power characteristics and the maximum power point tracking.

<span lang="EN-US">This paper presents a MATLAB/Simulink model for a 9-level cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverter with mismatched DC voltage sources. The impact of mismatched DC voltage sources on the performance of the 9-level CHBMI is investigated. Due to the mismatched voltages among DC voltage sources, the output fundamental voltage is different from the input reference voltage. To address this problem, a switching-angle calculation technique that accounts for mismatched as well as varying DC voltage sources is demonstrated. The switching angles obtained using this technique is able to produce the desired output fundamental voltage for a wide range of input reference voltages. Since this switching-angle calculation technique does not require complex iterative computation, it has the potential for real-time implementation.</span>

The islanded operation state of photovoltaic (PV) module was simulated and analyzed. PV cell was modeled according to its working principle and its running characteristics were discussed in different environment conditions. The maximum power point tracing and constant voltage regulation methods were used to adjust the output power and voltage. A PV cell module with a load was simulated and the simulation results can provide references for the development and application of renewable energy.

A coupled electrical and thermal model for calculating the temperature of a photovoltaic (PV) module has been developed and implemented in a simulation tool. The input data for this model include both environmental parameters (ambient temperature, wind speed, wind direction, total irradiance, and relative humidity) and electrical variables (voltage and current). In particular, this paper discusses the impact of the electrical operating point on the PV module temperature. This information can be very useful, especially in optimizing hybrid PV/thermal system operation. Numerical and experimental results are presented.

Abstract This article presents an evaluation of the performance of PV modules with the variation of some technical and environmental parameters: The PV module tilt angle, and the impact of soiling on the power output of PV module, and the transmittance of the PV glass surfaces. The experiments were achieved in Helwan City (Egypt) at the premises of the Faculty of Engineering of Helwan University. For the soiling part, it comprises two experiments: Transmittance of PV glass surfaces, and the power output of PV modules. For the transmittance experiment, it has been achieved using a simplified method, where three PV glass surfaces were placed at three different tilt angles (0°, 15°, and 30°) and left exposed to the outdoor environment without cleaning for a period of 25 days during the summer season. For the experiment concerning the impact of soiling on the power output, a set of PV modules connected in series have been exposed for a period of 75 days to the outdoor environment without cleaning. Finally, for the PV module tilt angle experiment, another set of PV modules have been used for that purpose, where four different tilt angles were experimented: 0°, 15°, 30°, and 45°. The present research recommends that more studies are needed in the same context, taking into consideration correlating the technical and environmental parameters in one single experiment and during different times of the year. This would be helpful in having overarching perspective regarding the electrical performance of PV modules under different circumstances of tilt angles and soiling patterns within the area of Helwan (Egypt).
