Hi Istiaque Mohammad,
It is my understanding that you are facing difficulty in setting up the parameter in a “PV Array”. Here are the steps to achieve the same:
  1. Add PV Array Block: Drag and drop the PV Array block into the Simulink model from the Simscape > Electrical > Specialized Power Systems > Renewable Energy library.
  2. Configure Parameters: Double-click on the PV Array block to open its parameter window. Define the number of series strings and the number of parallel strings in the array. Specify the type of PV panel if it is available in the predefined list or define custom parameters. Set the nominal values for temperature and irradiance that the PV array is expected to operate under. Series resistance, Shunt resistance, Diode ideality factor parameters define the electrical characteristics of the PV cells and are critical for accurate simulation. Input the manufacturer's specifications for the PV modules, such as open-circuit voltage (Voc), short-circuit current (Isc), voltage at maximum power point (Vmpp), current at maximum power point (Impp), and temperature coefficients.
  3. Apply and Save: After inputting the desired parameters, save the changes.
  4. Connect and Run: Connect the PV Array block to the rest of your Simulink model and run the simulation to see how the PV array performs under the given parameters and conditions.
You can refer to the following documentation to know more about the functions used:

For my design I need a 400W maximum power, which solar panel should I choose?
