The most important component affecting the
\r\nefficiency of photovoltaic power systems are solar panels. In other
\r\nwords, efficiency of these systems are significantly affected due to
\r\nthe being low efficiency of solar panel. Thus, solar panels should be
\r\noperated under maximum power point conditions through a power
\r\nconverter. In this study, design of boost converter has been carried
\r\nout with maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm which is
\r\nincremental conductance (Inc-Cond). By using this algorithm,
\r\nimportance of power converter in MPPT hardware design, impacts of
\r\nMPPT operation have been shown. It is worth noting that initial
\r\noperation point is the main criteria for determining the MPPT
\r\nperformance. In addition, it is shown that if value of load resistance is
\r\nlower than critical value, failure operation is realized. For these
\r\nanalyzes, direct duty control is used for simplifying the control.<\/p>\r\n","references":"[1] K. B.
