Photovoltaic devices -- Part 9: Solar simulator performance requirements
IEC standards for photovoltaic devices require the use of specific classes of solar simulators deemed appropriate for specific tests. Solar simulators can be either used for performance measurements of PV devices or endurance irradiation tests. This part of IEC 60904 provides the definitions of and means for determining simulator classifications. In the case of PV performance measurements, using a solar simulator of high class does not eliminate the need to quantify the influence of the simulator on the measurement by making spectral mismatch corrections and analyzing the influences of uniformity of irradiance of the test plane and temporal stability on that measurement. Test reports for devices tested with the simulator shall list the class of simulator used for the measurement and the method used to quantify the simulator's effect on the results. The purpose of this standard is to define classifications of solar simulators for use in indoor measurements of terrestrial photovoltaic devices, solar simulators are classified as A, B or C for each of the three categories based on criteria of spectral distribution match, irradiance non-uniformity on the test plane and temporal instability. This standard provides the required methodologies for determining the rating achieved by a solar simulator in each of the categories. This standard is referred to by other IEC standards in which class requirements are laid down for the use of solar simulators. Solar simulators for irradiance exposure should at least fulfil class CCC requirements where the third letter is related to long term instability. In the case of use for PV performance measurements, classification CBA is demanded where the third letter is related to the short term instability.
Photovoltaische Einrichtungen - Teil 9: Leistungsanforderungen an Sonnensimulatoren
Dispositifs photovoltaïques -- Partie 9: Exigences pour le fonctionnement des simulateurs solaires
Définit les classifications des simulateurs solaires utilisés pour des mesures en intérieur sur des dispositifs photovoltaïques terrestres; les simulateurs solaires sont classés en catégorie A, B ou C, chacune de ces trois catégories étant basée sur des critères d'équilibre de répartition spectrale, de non-uniformité de l'éclairement sur le plan d'essai et d'instabilité temporelle. Fournit les méthodologies requises pour déterminer les caractéristiques fournies par un simulateur solaire dans chacune des catégories. Le principal changement par rapport à l'édition précédente consiste en une redéfinition de la classification et de nouvelles procédures d'essai.
