Power Losses in Long String and Parallel-Connected Short Strings of Series-Connected Silicon-Based Photovoltaic Modules Due to Partial Shading Conditions
A. Mäki,Seppo Valkealahti +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the mismatch losses and the power losses due to failure in tracking of the global maximum power point of a long string of 18 series-connected PV modules and three short strings of six series connected PV modules connected in parallel are investigated under different partial shading conditions by using MATLAB Simulink simulation model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monte-Carlo calculations of keV electron and positron slowing down in solids
TL;DR: A Monte-Carlo simulation technique based on the screened Rutherford differential cross section for the elastic scattering and Gryzinski's semi-empirical expression for the inelastic core and valence electron excitation is used to describe electrons and positrons slowing down in solids as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photovoltaic Generator as an Input Source for Power Electronic Converters
L. Nousiainen,J. Puukko,A. Mäki,Tuomas Messo,Juha Huusari,J. Jokipii,Jukka Viinamäki,Diego Torres Lobera,Seppo Valkealahti,Teuvo Suntio +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the most important properties an input source should have in order to emulate a real PV generator are defined, since a power electronic substitute is often used in the validation process instead of a real generator.
Journal ArticleDOI
Size-dependent icosahedral-to-fcc structure change confirmed in unsupported nanometer-sized copper clusters
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamic thermal model of solar PV systems under varying climatic conditions
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a dynamic thermal model based on the total energy balance in the photovoltaic module, which is verified by the measurements data of the TUT solar PV power station research plant, which contains an accurate weather station, solar radiation measurements and a mesh of irradiance and module temperature measurements.
