Virtual instrumentation (VI), coupled with model-based design (MBD), provides a powerful framework for rapid prototyping and testing of complex systems. LabVIEW, a graphical programming environment, is a popular choice for implementing these approaches due to its intuitive interface and extensive libraries for applications like solar PV. A solar PV simulator can be a valuable tool for researchers, engineers, and technicians working on solar energy systems. It allows for controlled testing of inverters, battery storage systems, and other components without the need for actual solar panels.
