![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Numerical determination of parasitic resistances of a solar cell using the Lambert W-function Numerical determination of parasitic resistances of a solar cell using the Lambert W-function](/preview/png/1551051.png)
Several methods are currently available to determine the values of series and shunt resistance of a solar cell. A new method is presented here to numerically locate these values using the popular Newton–Raphson technique at maximum power point. Equations based on the Lambert W-function and their partial derivatives are provided so that all calculations may be performed in a Matlab or similar environment. The results of this new method are presented and compared with two published methods and the analytically obtained for a blue and grey type solar cell in earlier work (Charles et al., 1981). Additionally, three modules of various type (single, poly, and amorphous crystalline) were investigated. Values determined agreed with experimentally verified results and were obtained with quadratic convergence in all instances provided initial estimates of the roots were within vicinity of the actual roots.
► A new method to determine the loss resistance values of a solar cell is presented.
► Proposed method was used to determine loss resistances of various photovoltaic devices.
► The Newton–Raphson method proposed was compared to two other published methods.
► Values obtained from the proposed method was found to be more accurate than other methods studied in all cases.
