Abstract EN
The outdoor operating photovoltaic arrays have two different shading conditions, shadowing and covering.
The shading causes a decrease in output power of photovoltaic system and may bring hot spots which causes physical damage to the array.
This paper studies the electrical parameter distribution feature of photovoltaic array under different shading conditions by means of analog simulation and empirical testing.
Through introducing theoretical computational method of the electrical parameters, it describes the distribution features of the electrical parameters of photovoltaic array.
The results indicate that the influence of local shadowing on the current of array can be neglected.
Shadowing decreases the optimal operating voltage while covering leads to a decrease in the optimal operating voltage and the open-circuit voltage.
The drop magnitude of voltage is associated with the number of the shaded cell strings and the string voltage.
The two shading types can be identified on the basis of distribution rules of open-circuit voltage and optimal operating voltage.
Simulations and experiments verify the consistency of the rules.
Relevant conclusions provide a reference for modeling, online fault diagnosis, and optimization design of the maximum power tracking algorithm of photovoltaic array under different shading conditions.
