Abstract

This paper presents the implementation of a generalized photovoltaic model using Matlab/Simulink software package, which can be representative of PV cell, module for easy use on simulation platform. The proposed model is designed with a user-friendly icon and a dialog box like Simulink block libraries which makes the generalized PV model easily simulated and analyzed in conjunction with power electronics. Taking the effect of sunlight irradiance and cell temperature into consideration, the output current and power characteristics of PV model are simulated and optimized using the proposed model. The proposed model enables the dynamics of PV power system to be easily simulated, analyzed and optimized.

Abstract

The objective of this paper is to establish technical and economical aspects of the application of stand-alone photovoltaic (PV) system in sailing boat using boost chopper in order to simplify the power system and minimize the cost. Performance and control of dc-dc converter, suitable for photovoltaic (PV) applications, is presented here. This converter is mainly boost converter feeding a dc load. However, for integration purpose only one inductor is sufficient for power conversion in the converter. Here, the boost converter extracts complete power from the PV source and feeds into the load. Furthermore, the PV panel provides the essential protection to the passengers of boat from the straight sunshine and also from the rainwater.
