The Sandia cell temperature model estimates cell temperature from module temperature, , plane of array irradiance,
, and a temperature difference parameter,
. This difference parameter defines the temperature difference between the module and cell temperature.
The model form is:
,
where is a reference irradiance (1000 W/
).
