SPICE-based solar cell solver¶
Example 1: PV module calculator
Example 2: Quasi-3D 3J solar cell
When the two diode model is used to define the junctions in a MJ solar cell, then larger scale circuits can be constructed. Solcore includes two levels of large scale equivalent circuits: quasi-3D solar cell modelling and solar array modelling. Both solvers are based on the interface between Solcore and SPICE, allowing for a fast calculation of complex structures with many elements.
This solver has been tested with NGSPICE, only. Check the installation instructions for Windows and for MacOS.
