Cool! Nice work!!! Looks like a paper for you. But I think the exponent here should be 5/2 power, not third peer, right? You should consult with a cell researcher like Seung Rim. Also my bad code, you'll save a flop by doing division first then power. Ditto for Isat1.

Thanks for taking a look Mark! It seems there are various versions of that formula floating around. I took it from
https://works.bepress.com/dr_adel72/78/
Anyhow, I think the Insel slides are more recent and probably a better way to go. But I will consult Seung regarding what'd be more appropriate. Adding references also seems like a good idea.
Now, I just need to make the travis tests pass!
|
Also would be nice if you could cite your sources like pvlib does. It's okay to cite the Insel slides. They're from the 6th PVPMC workshop in Freiburg, Germany. @BenBourne was there. See section 3: PV modeling. The talk is called "30 years of PV modeling." |
|
@chetan201 can you post an example of the Voc vs. T plot to show that it is corrected? |
|
you'll need to put " fixes #65 " in your commit message to close the issue |

please correct the typos in gen_coeffs and maybe add a test that the new gen_coeffs work, probably better than ever!

Great test, I assume the theory is correct, that it should decrease monotonically? Is there a citation or way to show this from first principles?
Overall nice work! Thanks for undertaking this! Kudos! It's a real improvement, and IMHO deserves to be a major release. I think you should bump it up to v4.
FYI: Maybe next time use "Refactor" instead of "Find & Replace" because there were a lot of typos in the pvmismatch.contrib.gen_coeffs package?

Yes! Still it was a terrible decision to use replace. I had to do a lot of back and forth to track it down. Lesson learned!
|
@bmeyers and @nzweibaum you should really take a look at this, I think it's a major improvement and solves an issue that both of you and Keith Johnston complained about often - in particular the abysmal low temperature performance of PVMismatch. It should work much better after this PR. |

everything looks good now, just apply the patch to pvmismatch.contrib.gen_coeffs.example and update the quickstart tutorial in the documents, or any other documentation if necessary. You can push new docs to the GitHub pages by copying the output from sphinx into the top level docs folder
|
or maybe don't apply the patch, it's a judgement call - your judgment call actually - owner |

Relative % difference in Vmp vs TempC characteristics between using T^3 vs T^2.5 for Isat2 equation |
|
Maybe compare the temp coefficient, beta Vmp at 50[C]? Which exponent yields a tempco that is closest to some other published value? In my gut, I feel the cubic dependence (T^3) seems the safest but I have no reason or proof to think so. Another, option, is to make a new constant somewhere, for the exponent, and then don't hardcode it, instead use the constant. Doesn't have to be exposed to user, but still makes it easier to change as developer, and easier to expose later on? Something like: # somewhere
ISAT2_T_EXP = 3 # Isat 2 temperature dependence exponent
# then later
_Tstar = (self.Tcell / self.pvconst.T0) ** ISAT2_T_EXP # scaled temperature |
|
This is a release candidate. No point procrastinating releasing this for other outstanding issues. |
