Double Diode Ideality Factor Determination using the Fixed-Point Method

In this paper, we are interested in the diode ideality factor study of the double exponential equivalent model, based on the properties of the fixed point method. The optimal choice of this factor will improve the photovoltaic installation profitability. The diode ideality factor is a crucial parameter to describe solar cell behavior. Different methods have been elaborated to determine its value; some of them are analytical as Lambert function and others are direct as the normal method of the coordinates of the parameters. In our case, we applied the fixed point method which is an iterative algorithm to solve non-linear equations. The values obtained by this method are compared with the calculated values achieved by other methods to prove its significance and effects.
