Photovoltaic fault detection algorithm based on theoretical curves modelling and fuzzy classification system
TL;DR: A fault detection algorithm based on the analysis of the theoretical curves which describe the behavior of an existing PV system can accurately detect different faults occurring in the PV system, where the maximum detection accuracy of before considering the fuzzy logic system is equal to 95.27%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seven indicators variations for multiple PV array configurations under partial shading and faulty PV conditions
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of multiple photovoltaic array configurations under various partial shading and faulty PV conditions is analyzed and compared using MATLAB/Simulink software, and several indicators such as short circuit current (Isc), open circuit voltage (Voc), voltage at maximum power point (Vmpp), series resistance (Rs), fill factor (FF), and thermal voltage have been used to compare the obtained results.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simultaneous fault detection algorithm for grid-connected photovoltaic plants
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented a new algorithm for detecting faults in grid-connected photovoltaic (GCPV) plant based on the t-test statistical analysis method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Output-Power Enhancement for Hot Spotted Polycrystalline Photovoltaic Solar Cells
TL;DR: In this paper, the development of two hot spot mitigation techniques is proposed using a simple and reliable method using the FLIR i5 thermal imaging camera. And the proposed techniques ensure a decrease in the shaded PV cell temperature; thus, there is an increase in PV output power.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of micro cracks on photovoltaic output power: case study based on real time long term data measurements
TL;DR: The examined PV modules which contain micro cracks shows large loss in the output power comparing with the theoretical output power predictions, where the maximum power loss is equal to 80.73%.
