开发了一种用于采用三结太阳能电池的聚光光伏（CPV）模块的三维（3D）运行模拟器。通过将三结太阳能电池的3D等效电路模拟与光学模型的光线追踪模拟相结合，计算了CPV模块的运行特性。光学模型采用了典型的平面菲涅耳透镜和均化器。计算了跟踪误差对CPV模块性能的影响。光学效率和短路电流（Isc）之间存在相关性。然而，最大功率（Pm）与这些值无关，且强烈依赖于填充因子（FF）。我们可以使用这个整体模拟器对CPV模块从光入射到运行特性进行评估和优化。
A 3‐dimensional (3D) operating simulator for concentrator photovoltaic (CPV) module using triple‐junction solar cell was developed. By connecting 3D equivalent circuit simulation for triple‐junction solar cell and ray‐trace simulation for optics model, the operating characteristics of CPV module were calculated. A typical flat Fresnel lens and homogenizer were adapted to the optics model. The influence of tracking error on the performance of CPV module was calculated. There was the correlation between the optical efficiency and Isc. However, Pm was not correlated with these values, and was strongly dependent on FF. We can use this total simulator for the evaluation and optimization from the light incidence to operating characteristic of CPV modules.
