AIEE PHOTOVOLTAIC SOLAR SIMULATOR SPECIFICATION,

Abstract

The AIEE Solar Simulator Specification represents a reasonable compromise at the present time between the desires of solar power engineers for accurate solar radiation simulation and the present state-of-the-art in lamps, filters, and radiometric instrumentation. This specification has served as a tarting point for the development of solar simulators by several companies and their increasingly widespread use for photovoltaic converter performance testing. This specifi cation should be reviewed annually be interested technical groups such as the Solar Working Group of the Interagency Advanced Power Group to make recommendations to the AIEE regarding revisions in accordance with advances in solar simulator and radiometric technology.
