PURPOSE:To provide a method for simulating a solar battery by which the output current and output voltage of a solar battery to be simulated under a given condition can be calculated with accuracy. CONSTITUTION:When an output current I1 is inputted against the output voltage V1 of a standard solar battery maintained at a prescribed temperature T1 and quantity of solar radiation E1, these values are maintained (step 1) and, when the series resistance RS, correction factor K, variation alpha of a short-circuit current ISC and variation beta of a release voltage VOC when the temperature changes by 1 deg.C of the standard solar battery are inputted, these values are maintained (step S2). When the temperature T2 and quantity of solar radiation E2 of the standard solar battery in an arbitrary state are inputted, the output current I2 and output voltage V2 of a solar battery to be simulated in the arbitrary state are calculated from I2=I1+ISC{(E2/E1)-1}+alpha(T2-T1) and V2= V1+beta(T2-T1)-RS(I2-I1). |
