ABSTRACT: In
this article we make a detailed study and a presentation of the different
models of circuit’s equivalent to silicon-based photovoltaic solar cells.
Starting from a real solar cell and real phenomena from the manufacture of the
cell to the production of current by the cell. A comparison of the models with
a real experimental method is carried out. The comparison is based on an
overlay of the results. The study allowed us to choose the most suitable model.
We are interested in the losses by leaks and the losses due to the development
of the cell. In fact, we studied the influence of the shunt resistance on the
current-voltage characteristic and the electrical power.
