Model to Evaluate the Performance of Building Integrated Photovoltaic Systems...IJECEIAES
This article describes a mathematical model implemented in Matlab/Simulink to evaluate the performance of building integrated photovoltaic systems (BIPVS). The proposed methodology allows to model independently the solar panel, the photovoltaic (pv) generator, inverter and the grid to integrate them into a single model in Simulink in order to evaluate the performance of the complete system. The validation of the model was made on a BIPV system of 6 kWp installed in a building at the Universidad de Bogotá Jorge Tadeo Lozano in Bogota, Colombia. The results indicate that there is a correlation greater than 0.9 between DC and AC power generated by the BIPV system and calculated by the model proposed for any weather condition.

Performance of low-cost solar radiation loggerIJECEIAES
In solar power systems, irradiance value data are among the most important parameters. Such data can be used in installing photovoltaic (PV) modules, such as determining the exact location, tilt angle, and required area, for optimal power efficiency. In this study, the comprehensive simulation and implementation of a solar radiation meter with a PV cell and temperature sensor are presented. The irradiance measurement value is based on the power reading generated by the small capacity of the PV cell at a specific load converted into a digital value in the microcontroller using the implicit Newton polynomial interpolation (NPI) equation as a low-cost alternative method. The effect of temperature is included in the conversion to obtain precise measurement results. Firstly, the structure and characteristics of the PV cell are discussed. Secondly, the parameters, measuring method, and conversion of the measurement reading data using the NPI equation are presented to assess the results. Finally, the simulation of the solar radiation meter using the PSIM and implementation of the hardware are conducted to validate the concepts and compare their results. The proposed hardware has an average error of 2.72% in the implementation of the measurement test.

This paper demonstrates a mathematical representation of Photovoltaic (PV) solar cells and hence panels performance. One-diode solar cell model is implemented to simulate the cell and extract the performance indications. The tested PV modules are BP Solar (60 Watt) and Synthesis Power (50 Watts), which are operating in a PV generation system in the University of Anbar - Iraq, College of Applied Sciences. The math model demonstrates Power versus Voltage (P-V) characteristic curves to depict and study various parameters with affecting variations in the PV array performance. The parameters include ambient and cell temperature degrees and solar irradiance (G) level which are the main elements to dictate the productivity of a solar system. G is represented by sun unit (1 sun=1 kW/m2). The outcomes of the simulation model characteristics curves have been compared with curves provided by the tested modules data sheets. MATLAB software has been used to simulate the model and extract the results. This paper also investigated photovoltaic simulation with maximum power point tracking (MPPT) converter to evaluate hence predict the behaviors of the whole photovoltaic DC current generation using PSIM Power Electronics program. The model focuses on the basic components in PV systems; The panel and the DC-DC converter. The modeling outcome data will be used as a reference verifying the performance of the tested modules during the year seasons under the dominating dusty hot weather in western Iraq.
In this work, the performances of a solar cell based on InGaN were simulated under the illumination conditions of one sun by employing SILVACO software.
Several algorithms have been offered to track the Maximum Power Point when we have one maximum power point. Moreover, fuzzy control and neural was utilized to track the Maximum Power Point when we have multi-peaks power points. In this paper, we will propose an improved Maximum Power Point tracking method for the photovoltaic system utilizing a modified PSO algorithm. The main advantage of the method is the decreasing of the steady state oscillation (to practically zero) once the Maximum Power Point is located. moreover, the proposed method has the ability to track the Maximum Power Point for the extreme environmental condition that cause the presence of maximum multi-power points, for example, partial shading condition and large fluctuations of insolation. To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method, MATLAB simulations are carried out under very challenging circumstance, namely step changes in irradiance, step changes in load, and partial shading of the Photovoltaic array. Finally, its performance is compared with the perturbation and observation” and fuzzy logic results for the single peak, and the neural-fuzzy control results for the multi-peaks.

Modelling of fuzzy logic controller for variable step mppt in photovoltaic sy...eSAT Journals
Abstract
The output power of photovoltaic electrical systems is highly dynamic and non-linear in nature. In order to extract maximum power
from such systems, maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technique is required. MPPT techniques with variable step-size of
perturbation track the maximum power point (MPP) with more efficiency. In this paper, a model of a fuzzy logic controller (FLC) for
determining the step-size of perturbation in duty-cycle of a photovoltaic electrical system to track MPP is presented. The model is
simulated in MATLAB/Simulink®.

Investigating Of Proper Photovoltaic Panel Tilt Angle to Be Used As Shading D...IJERA Editor
Photovoltaic panels can act as power generator as well as external shading devices with proper tilt angle. In this paper we will study the performance of a Silicon Photovoltaic system with different tilt angle arrangement in Kuwait (latitude 30˚ N). In the study the PV system is installed facing south to collectmaximum solar radiation at noon. The angle is varied from 00 to 900, during full year at the Solstice (the time at which the day and night come into balance) and Equinox (the end of the day’s increase or decrease in day night hours) periods, to achieve optimum tilt angle, higher in magnitude than 300 with competitive output power. The results show that the performance and the output power of the PV system with 50˚ tilt angle, is equivalent to the corresponding values at tilt angle equal to Kuwait latitude (30˚) during the whole year.

Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Standard for calculating the energy rating of
PV modules

European Commission, Joint Research Centre, Ispra
7th Energy Rating and Module Performance Modeling Workshop,
30th – 31st March 2017, Lugano
3. Overview of presentation
1. Existing standards and IEC 61853 so far
2. Relation of IEC 61853-3 to the first two parts
3. Models included in IEC 61853-3
4. Why a standard on PV energy rating?
The existing standard for measuring PV module power calls for
specific conditions (Standard Test Conditions):
• In-plane irradiance G=1000W/m2
• Module temperature Tmod=25°C
• A standard solar spectrum (so-called AM 1.5 spectrum)
These conditions are convenient for laboratory and factory
measurements but do not represent real operating conditions in most
places and times.
There is a need for a better representation of PV performance.
5. Effects influencing PV conversion efficiency
The performance of PV modules depends on a number of external influences
apart from, of course, the solar radiation:
• Reflection of light from the module surface depends on angle of
incidence
• The PV conversion efficiency changes with module temperature and
radiation intensity
• Module temperature in turn depends on local temperature, irradiance
and cooling by wind
• Variations in the spectral content of sunlight influences PV power
• Long-term degradation depends on climatic conditions (but how?)
6. IEC 61853, the story so far
IEC 61853-1:
This part of the standard prescribes measurements of a ‘matrix’ of power
values at different values of in-plane irradiance and module temperature:
• Irradiance values between 100W/m2 and 1100W/m2
• Module temperatures between 15°C and 75°C
A few of the measurements in the matrix are not needed because they
correspond to conditions that are not found in reality (very high module
temperature at low irradiance).
8. IEC 61853, the story so far
IEC 61853-2:
This part of the standard deals with other effects influencing PV performance:
• Variations in reflectivity as a function of incidence angle (angle-of-
incidence effect)
• Spectral response measurements
• Module temperature as a function of irradiance, ambient temperature and
wind speed
For the AOI effect and the module temperature, part 2 specifies fitting the
measured data to models.
9. Models and data needed in IEC 61853-3
Angle-of-incidence (AOI) effects, model by Martin&Ruiz, 2001.
• Requires in-plane direct and diffuse irradiance
Spectral response, numerical integration of spectral response curve.
• Requires in-plane direct and diffuse spectrally resolved irradiance,
corrected for AOI
Module temperature, model by Faiman (2008).
• Requires in-plane AOI-corrected irradiance, ambient (air) temperature
and wind speed
PV module power, interpolation of power matrix measured according
to IEC 61853 part 1.
• Requires in-plane AOI-corrected irradiance and module temperature
10. Angle-of-incidence (AOI) effects
Given the in-plane beam and diffuse irradiance, Bp and Dp, the
corrections due to AOI can be written (Martin&Ruiz, 2001):
Here, θ is the angle between the module surface normal and the
incident direct irradiance, β is the inclination angle of the module from
horizontal, and ar is a coefficient that must be determined from
measurements (IEC 61853 part 2).

12. Calculating the influence of spectrum
Given the spectral response of a subcell l of a PV device (SR), the short-
circuit current can be written as:
where k is a proportionality factor and Gλ is the spectrally resolved irradiance.
At each point in time we define a spectral correction factor: Cs,l for subcell l:
Here, Gλ,STC is the STC spectrally resolved irradiance.
Since SR is measured at discrete wavelengths the integrals are evaluated
using numerical integration
𝐼𝑠𝑐,𝑙 = 𝑘 𝑆𝑅𝑙 𝐺 𝑑
𝐶𝑠,𝑙 =
𝑆𝑅𝑙 𝐺 𝑑
𝑆𝑅𝑙 𝐺,𝑆𝑇𝐶 𝑑
𝐺,𝑆𝑇𝐶 𝑑
𝐺 𝑑
13. Calculating the influence of spectrum
The overall spectral mismatch of the device can then be found using:
In this calculation Cs,l is the spectral correction factor for the subcell that is
current-limiting at hour j.

14. Model for module temperature
Given ambient temperature Tamb, wind speed v and in-plane irradiance Gp
(corrected for AOI), the module temperature Tmod is given as:
This model is taken from Faiman (2008). The coefficients u0 and u1 must be
determined by fitting to measured data (IEC 61853 part 2).
𝑇 𝑚𝑜𝑑 = 𝑇𝑎𝑚𝑏 +
𝐺 𝑝
𝑢0 + 𝑢1 𝑣
15. Calculating PV power
Once we have the spectrally corrected irradiance and the module
temperature we can calculate the PV power.
For (G,Tmod) values inside the boundaries of the measured matrix, the power
value is found by bilinear interpolation.
In case the (G,Tmod) values lie outside the range of measured values in the
matrix, the power values are found by bilinear extrapolation from the last pair
of values in the matrix.
Values of in-plane G and Tmod are calculated from the standard data sets
supplied as part of IEC 61583-4.
