Abstract

Parametric identification of the single diode model of a photovoltaic generator is a key element in simulation and diagnosis. Parameters’ values are often determined by using experimental data the modules manufacturers provide in the data sheets. In outdoor applications, the parametric identification is instead performed by starting from the current vs. voltage curve acquired in non-standard operating conditions. This paper refers to this latter case and introduces an approach based on the use of interval arithmetic. Photovoltaic generators based on crystalline silicon cells are considered: they are modeled by using the single diode model, and a divide-and-conquer algorithm is used to contract the initial search space up to a small hyper-rectangle including the identified set of parameters. The proposed approach is validated by using experimental data measured in outdoor conditions. The information provided by the approach, in terms of parametric sensitivity and of correlation between current variations and drifts of the parameters values, is discussed. The results are analyzed in view of the on-site application of the proposed approach for diagnostic purposes.
