Abstract- Efficient modeling and simulation of photovoltaic (PV) systems has become more important due to the wide integration of solar energy in modern power systems. The equations describing the PV systems are transcendental nonlinear in natu re, this results a slow and inefficient simulations for long-term analysis. This paper proposes a modified approach of modeling photovoltaic array for uniform and non-uniform irradiance condition. Initially for uniform irradiance condition single diode mod el is used as equivalent circuit. A method based on adaptively varying the value of series resistance is proposed to find the equivalent circuit parameters. The proposed model is simulated using MATLAB and results are validated using the experimental results obtained from the datasheet values and other models in the literature. The model is extended for non-uniform irradiance and the results are validated. The proposed methodology found to have advantage over the other conventional methods in terms of accuracy and less simulation time. Keywords-Modeling, uniform irradiance, non-uniform irradiance, photovoltaic (PV) array 1.
