Calculation of Rsh and Rs

Hello,

I'm making a final paper for my graduation and i've been using SAM for some simulations on photovoltaic system. The final paper is about a comparison on a real system SAMs' simulated results.

While i was writing the paper i had a question. In the module specifications i used CEC Performance Model with User Entered Specifications but SAM calculates the Rs and Rsh parameters by itself.

I just need the equations used in those calculations, so i can write it into my final paper.

Thank you.

Hi Brayan,

Those equations and references for their original sources are available in the SAM Photovoltaic Technical Reference Manual, which you can download from the PV Publications page:

Best regards,
