Abstract: This paper performs a review on the simulation modules for photovoltaic cells and their recent application. Mathematical modulation is used to simulate the photovoltaic cell and to perform both series and parallel connections. Simulation analysis of photovoltaic modules is done under different weather conditions by varying the irradiance and temperature. The simulation model calculates the output power efficiency of photovoltaic cells. For future application purpose, this research output can be used to predict the desired output power and also to suggest on suitable photovoltaic cells connection for different weather conditions in Malaysia.
Keywords: Photovoltaic Cells, Prediction, Simulation, Weather.
Scope of the Article: Regression and Prediction.
