The model will be used to derive the so-called solar cell equation, which is a widely used relation between the electric current density I leaving the solar cell and the voltage V across the converter. For this purpose, we use the relation for generated power P = I ⋅ V and Eq. (127) and we obtain: By using Eqs. (128), (129) we derive:
Here is the resulting formula: VOC = (n × k × T × ln (IL/I0 + 1)) / q As we can see from this equation, the open circuit voltage of a solar PV cell depends on: n or intrinsic carrier concentration (also known as ideality factor, ranging from 0 to 1).
Open circuit voltage (V OC) is the most widely used voltage for solar cells. It specifies the maximum solar cell output voltage in an open circuit; that means that there is no current (0 amps). We can calculate this voltage by using the open circuit voltage formula for solar cells. We are going to look at this equation.
Silicon solar cells on high quality single crystalline material have open-circuit voltages of up to 764 mV under one sun and AM1.5 conditions 1, while commercial silicon devices typically have open-circuit voltages around 690 mV. The V OC can also be determined from the carrier concentration 2: V O C = k T q ln [(N A + Δ n) Δ n n i 2]
Solar panel open circuit voltage is basically a summary of all PV cells Voc voltage (since this they are wired in series). Let’s start with the formula: This equation is derived by setting the current in the solar cell efficiency equation to zero (and doing some additional complex derivation). Here is the resulting formula:
An equivalent circuit model of an ideal solar cell's p–n junction uses an ideal current source (whose photogenerated current increases with light intensity) in parallel with a diode (whose current represents recombination losses). To account for resistive losses, a shunt resistance and a series resistance are added as lumped elements.
