Question # $08$:

Consider the illustrated PV system as shown in Figure $2,$ and the given operational data:

$[09$ Marks$]$

DNI $=1000\frac{W}{m^2},$ Efficiency $=20\%$

For a single module: $I_{mp}=3\mathrm{.}33A,V_{mp}=18V,I_{sc}=3\mathrm{.}5A,V_{oc}=20V$

Calculate and show your main steps:

a$.$ Maximum power supplied by the shown array $[03$ Marks$]$

b$.$ Maximum current supplied by the array $[03$ Marks$]$

c$.$ Minimum area of the PV array $($ hint : use the efficiency formula$).[03$ Marks$]$

Efftetency $=\frac{\text{P}\text{o}\text{w}\text{e}\text{r}(\text{m}\text{e}\text{a}\text{s}\text{u}\text{r}\text{e}\text{d})}{\text{D}\text{N}\text{I}\text{P}\text{a}\text{n}\text{e}\text{l}\text{A}\text{r}\text{e}\text{a}}*100$
