Hi Ms all, I need some help in order to understand better some issues that I am experiencing in my PV systems under partial shaded effect. The issues that I need to overcome in my experimentation are:

  • Why in the Matlab model https://es.mathworks.com/examples/simpower/mw/sps_product-power_PVArray_PartialShading-partial-shading-of-a-pv-module there is not necessary a capacitor, whereas in my model I have to attach a capacitor in between the Cell-Array and the power DC-DC converter?, otherwise simulink produce an error.
  • How should I connect the power DC-DC converter for testing an MPPT algorithm?. Because, I want to proof a MPPT algorithm under these effect. Having a power converter in betwen the PV-Array and the Load, is enterely necessary in order to implement a MPPT algorithm.
  • I hope you can give me some insights in order to overcome these issues and be able to plot my P-V figure.

    Best wishes!.
