Transcendental equations for solar cells

2017. Thin film solar cells are claimed to have a higher performance ratio under some light conditions, such as di↵use or low light. In order to investigate whether di↵useness could be a cause for a higher performance ratio of thin film solar cells, we measure the performance of six types of solar cells, while also measuring the irradiance and di↵useness.

Can a mathematical model accurately reflect the working nature of PV cells?

As a well-built mathematical model, it should be able to correctly reflect the working nature of PV cells. Meanwhile, the established model can reflect the characteristics of actual PV cells under different temperatures and different solar irradiances as accurately as possible.

How to model PV cells?

For PV cells modeling, a two-step modeling method is proposed. PV cells model is separated as ideal model part and resistance network part. For the proposed model, only datasheet information of PV cells is needed. Data in datasheet information is fully utilized in the processing of modeling.

Why do PV cells use two-step modeling?

The adoption of the two-step modeling method makes the PV cells model effectively avoid the nonlinear transcendental equation, so that the Newton iterative algorithm is no longer required for the solution of the model.

Can datasheet information be used in photovoltaic cell modeling?

Data in datasheet information is fully utilized in the processing of modeling. In order to tackle the nonlinear transcendental equation and intractability of traditional photovoltaic (PV) cells model, this paper proposes a two-step modeling method based on datasheet information.

How can a model reflect the characteristics of PV cells?

Meanwhile, the established model can reflect the characteristics of actual PV cells under different temperatures and different solar irradiances as accurately as possible. Namely, its output characteristics should be consistent with the datasheet data or the actual characteristic data as much as possible.

Why is PV cell model difficult to solve?

The reason why PV cells model is difficult to solve lies on two aspects: first, the relationship between the output voltage and the output current is not direct and is an implicit transcendental relationship; second, the five parameters are not constant, their values are affected by temperature and solar irradiance.
