Study of photovoltaic systems using modelling and simulation

Abstract

The article presents mathematical models and simulation programs, made in MATLAB - Simulink, of the main components within photovoltaic system. For the continuous supply of electricity to consumers, in addition to photovoltaic panels are used electric accumulators and static converters, which have the role of converting direct current into alternating current or alternating current into direct current and to monitor and control the charging–discharge batteries process. The assembly consisting of all the elements presented above, interconnected and dimensioned to operate in a single system, is modelled and simulated and the results obtained reflect the limits but especially offers the possibility of choosing the optimal solution for a park of energy production based on solar radiation.
