Procedimiento de evaluación de pérdidas energéticas provocadas por sombras proyectadas sobre paneles solares fotovoltaicos

Procedure for evaluating energy losses caused by projected shadows on photovoltaic solar panels. The method of the invention is based on taking advantage of the storage of the depth of field (depth buffer) used in the graphics cards (which allows to evaluate which polygons are hidden by others when representing a group of 3d objects at the level of the size of a pixel. On screen), and uses the information stored in it to decide which elements of a panel are shaded or not. Subsequently, these positions are translated into elements previously defined in the architecture of a photovoltaic generator. This information about the state of shading in each element is directly exploited by an electrical model of diodes that allows to calculate electric shadow factors up to the scale of a photovoltaic cell or even smaller.
