That’s why we have designed this new Solar Panel Library and have reduced the size of the solar panel. We have also added a new black solar panel component to it. So, this library contains 2 solar Panel modules in it. First, let’s have a look at a brief introduction to Solar Panel and then will download the Proteus Library zip file.
What is Solar Panel?
- Solar Panels are designed using solar cells composed of semiconductor materials(i.e. silicon, phosphorous etc.) and convert solar energy into electrical energy.
- Solar Panels are used to generate renewable energy and are considered as one of the major sources.
- Real Solar Panel modules are shown in the below figure:
Solar Panel Library for Proteus V2.0
- First, we need to download the zip file of Proteus Library by clicking the below button:
[DownloadButton title=”Download Proteus Library zip file”]
- In this zip file, you need to open the folder named Proteus Library Files.
- In this folder, you will find 2 Proteus Library files named:
- SolarPanel2TEP.IDX
- SolarPanel2TEP.LIB
- Copy-paste these files in the Library folder of Proteus software.
Note:
- If you are unable to add Library in Proteus 7 or 8 Professional, then you should have a look at How to add new Library in Proteus 8.
- After adding the files in Proteus software, open it and if you are already working on it, then you need to restart it.
- In the components section, make a search for solar panel and you will get results as shown in the below figure:
- In the above figure, the first result is from version 1.0, and the remaining two are added by this new solar library.
- Let’s place these sensors in the Proteus workspace, as shown in the below figure:
- This Solar Library has thee two solar panels in it, one is blue and the second one is black.
- Both are of 12V but their voltage level can be changed from the Properties panel.
- In order to open the Properties panel, double click on the solar panel and you can change the value of Voltage here, as shown in the below figure:
- Click Ok to close the properties panel.
Now let’s design a simple Proteus simulation of Solar Panel in Proteus:
Proteus Simulation of Solar Panel
- I have changed the voltage level of black solar from the properties panel & simply placed a voltmeter in front of these solar panels, as shown in the below figure:
- Now let’s run the Proteus simulation of solar panel:
- As you can see in the above figure, the output of black solar is around 16V, while blue solar is giving 12V.
- That’s how you can test it for variable voltage i.e. day time, night time etc.
So, that was all for today. I hope this library will help you guys in your engineering projects. If you have any issues/queries, use the below comment form. Thanks for reading. Have a good day.
