AbstractA Versatile simulation model for photovoltaic array
is developed based on the DC physical model of photovoltaic
(PV) module under PSIM environment. The I-V, P-V
characteristics of photovoltaic array with different combinations can be simulated by the model. In addition, the model
includes the function of Maximum Power Point Tracking
(MPPT) and completes the simulation of the perturbation and
observation method. It is concluded from the analysis of
simulation results that high accuracy of the model simulation
can accurately reflect the physical characteristics of the
photovoltaic, and will provide a basis for the simulation of the
power generation systems.

Simulation result is show in Fig. 6. It is concluded from
the Fig.6, as the circuit is stable, MPPT module starts
looking for the maximum power point. According to the
simulation step and the adjusting amplitude set by simulation
program, during a certain period this system can find a MPP
and output the corresponding voltage of maximum power
point, and then make the circuit continue to work at this
voltage stability. This process takes about 5ms.
