Parameter estimation of photovoltaic panels and a model-based maximum power point tracking algorithm
This paper presents a model-based algorithm for fast tracking of maximum power point of a photovoltaic panel. Parameters of an equivalent circuit have been estimated based on experimental data and characteristic data provided by manufacturer. Since photoelectric current is highly temperature-dependent, the effect of temperature is considered in the model. The proposed method is based on the maximum power point locus of the solar panel. So the tracking speed is much faster than a model-free method. In the suggested technique, the voltage of maximum power point can be determined using output voltage and current of solar panel and the voltage of a point on the maximum power point locus with the same current, in three steps. The main novelty of the proposed model-based method is that there is no need to measure solar radiation. Experiment results are presented and prove the feasibility of the proposed maximum power point tracking method.
