Design and Experimental Studies on Laboratory Photovoltaic Concept for Mechatronics System of Solar Electric Application

Abstract

The article presents the design and construction of a laboratory off-grid photovoltaic system using analogic elements and components. Some operating subsystems are presented, such as: charging module, monitoring module for the batteries, DCDC converter, DC-AC converter. Experiments and recorded waveforms are presented and discussed. The laboratory photovoltaic system can be used for educational and researches purposes by students and researchers.
