Calculated Solar Cell ISC Sensitivity to Atmospheric Conditions Under Direct and Global Irradiance

    Research output: Contribution to conferencePaper

    Abstract

    Using a new solar spectral irradiation computer model, a procedure has been devised which allows the calculation of short-circuit current (Isc) sensitivity to atmospheric variables. This procedure, which has applications for photovoltaic; reference cell calibrations, clearly shows the Isc sensitivity to spectral distribution changes without the influence of the total irradiance level. Exampleoutputs are presented for four different solar cell types.
