  5. 4. An FPGA Based MPPT and Monitoring System : suitable for a photovoltaic based microgrid

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för fysik och elektroteknik (IFE)

    Author : Rongpeng Zheng; [2019]
    Keywords : Microgrids; Monitoring System; Maximum Power Point Tracking MPPT ; Stand-alone Mode; Grid-connected Mode; FPGA; Verilog HDL.;

    Abstract : Microgrids containing photovoltaic (PV) cells and wind power gain more and more interest. These microgrids may work in stand-alone mode ("islanding") or be conncted to the main grid. In both modes of operation, power quality must be monitored and controlled. This report focuses on microgrids and aims to implement a monitoring system based on FPGA. READ MORE

  6. 5. Study of defects in PV modules : UV fluorescence and Thermographic photography for Photovoltaics (PV) Field Application

    University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknik

    Author : Sophie Nylund; Zahra Barbari; [2019]
    Keywords : UV fluorescence; IR thermography; defects in PV modules; delamination; discoloration; hotspots; snail trails; cracks; fault in bypass diode; non-functioning cell in PV;

    Abstract : For a PV plant it is of fundamental importance that the operation of the PV modules is free from faults or at least that the faults can be detected early, to ensure efficient electricity production. Some defects such as cracks can be seen in visible light while microcracks and damage to the silicon material can only be seen through special lighting. READ MORE
