Abstract

This research presents a general mathematical representation of a photoelectric collector, which
could be used in solar collector research and applications. This model has the benefit of being
based on the specifications for the photoelectric collector stated in the manufacturer's advisory.
The Simulink software was used to simulate the mathematical model of the solar cell. The prop
erties of the photodiode and characteristic curves were established using simulation. The results,
which could be used for various solar photovoltaic investigations were quite accurate with a
maximum error of less than 1%. The most essential characteristic of photovoltaic systems is that
a new plant can be designed, built, and operated quickly; static systems do not have moving
parts, so there is no noise. Due to the lack of moving parts, it can last for a long time and requires
minimal maintenance.
