A computer program (PVCURVE) has been developed to simulate the d.c. output current-voltage (Z-q characteristics of a photovoltaic module, as a function of three characteristic data points which are usually provided by the manufacturer. These data points are: the open-circuit voltage (V,), the short-circuit current (I=), and the voltage and current at the maximum power point (V,, ZM) for the module measured under standard test conditions of 1 kW/m' solar radiation and 25 "C cell temperature. The program can prepare plots of the Z-V curves and determine the maximum power voltages and currents for the module under varying radiation levels and cell temperatures. If required, the Z-V data points can also be given in a tabular form. The proposed model has been found to simulate the Z-V characteristic of photovoltaic modules with a high degree of accuracy making it well suited for photovoltaic system design and performance analysis.

## Abstract A twoβdimensional analytical model for an AlGaN/GaN MODFET is presented. The model assumes the velocity saturation of electrons in 2βDEG, which causes current saturation and accurately predicts the output conductance arising from the channel length modulation. The effects of spontaneous
