Modelling Photovoltaic System Using Bond Graph Method: A Comparative Study

Abstract

Bond Graphs (BG)are perceived as a promising possibility for modeling complex physical systems. This paper explores its potential by undertaking the analysis, modeling and design of a photovoltaic (PV) solar system. A model of a photovoltaic solar system is performed using Bond Graph Approach based on a 1-diode/2- resistors (1D & 2R) circuit model. The main aim of this model is to study and master the behavior of this PV system. Moreover, it seeks building up a better and more reliable PV model to replicate the exact I-V characteristics. To validate the accuracy of the proposed model, a comparison with MATLAB PV model was carried out. Simulation results of this model were obtained using 20-Sim software. The outcome reveals that the model replicates MATLAB PV model curve to a very good degree of accuracy under the considered operating conditions.
