Abstract

Laboratory experiments are performed for the object of manufacturing dye sensitized solar cells under different manufacturing variable. Materials used as semi- conductors are TO2, SnO2, and ZnO. Dyes used are: N3, N719 and Black dye) and different particle sizes of semi-conductors are used and dyes with different concentrations are used. Other parameters studied are temperature of treatment temperature target and reference temperature Experimental results indicated that the cell manufactured of cells gave the highest performance represented by used TO2 as semi- conductor and N3 as a dye by photo conversion efficiency. Experimental results are plotted as relations between volt and currentor between power and current.
A generic photovoltaic simulation model is implemented using the MATLAB / SIMULINK interface. The model was built using the fundamental circuit equations for photovoltaic (PV) cells, which included the effects of solar radiation and temperature fluctuations. These effects are applied in real-time at the same moment. Because of their nonlinear characteristics, solar cells must be studied in order to develop and simulate their maximum power point. This model applies to dye-sensitized solar cells employing N3 dye and three distinct semiconductors: ZnO, SnO2, and TiO2.
The characteristic dimensions of photovoltaic systems such as and current-voltage (I-V) characteristics power supply voltage (PV) are drawn in the MATLAB / SIMULINK interface based on changes in atmospheric parameter values such as solar radiation, temperature, and operating parameter values such as semiconductor type, dye concentration, and particles. The simulation results demonstrated that these elements, as well as the corresponding photovoltaic model, have an impact on PV module maximum operating performance. The battery constructed of TiO2 semiconductor with N3 dye performed the best, followed by the battery made of ZnO, and finally the battery made of SnO2 with the same dye N3.
