| Abstract | ||
| The study of Photovoltaic (PV) systems in an efficient manner requires a precise knowledge of the I-V and P-V characteristic curves of solar PV array. Therefore, this paper presents modelling and simulation of solar PV module using Matlab/Simulink. This model is based on mathematical equations and is described through an equivalent circuit including a photo current source, diode, shunt resistor expressing leakage current and series resistor represents the internal losses due to the current flow. The developed model allows the prediction of PV array behaviour under different circuit model and environmental parameters (temperature, and solar radiation).A particular typical 175Watt solar panel was used for model evaluation, and results was compared with points taken directly from the manufacturer’s published curves and show excellent correspondence to the model. | ||
