Simulation efficiency for conventional grid-tied PV systems
Many study tends to use the completed single diode model (CSDM) to
represent the PV electrical output.
The transcendental nonlinear equation of the CSDM describing the PV
generator generally result in slow and inefficient simulations.
As recommended in Chapter 4, it is a good practice to start the simplest PV
model, such as the ideal single diode model (ISDM) for simulation until the
model accuracy can be proved to be unsatisfactory.
The next level will be the simplified single diode models (SSDM).
The CSDM is the last option until the essence can be proved since it presents
an inclusive form of equations that is difficult to be computed efficiently.
A good simulation system should always consider the balance of the
simulation efficiency and the model complication. The unnecessary
complexity should be always avoided.
In the design case, the DC/DC stage includes two boost converter that is
switched at 50 kHz.
The averaged model of each converter has been derived and expressed

Power train is formed by the blocks of the PV module, the flyback converter as
the DC/DC stage, the DC link as the energy buffer, the AC stage for the
DC/AC conversion.
Control functions include the MPPT, the PV link voltage regulation, and the
DC link voltage regulation.
