DOCUMENTATION FOR PV data

In the experiments, we applied TSM72, SPM045P and XHYG-10W PV modules.

The experiments used three-series connected XHYG-10W modules operating under PSCs. The PV cells were shaded by light films to simulate different PSCs. AYHT309 thermometer with Type-K thermocouple probes was installed to measure the temperature of the PV panels. The solar irradiance was measured by a standard 2 cm2 cm mono-crystalline PV cell which has been calibrated by the National Institute of Metrology, China. A Fluke F289C multimeter measured the cell’s short circuit current. A PROVA-1011 PV system analyzer has the capability of generating the I-V data under a specific environmental condition.
