Finding Software Ways to Reduce the Error for the Solar Power Plant Simulation Model

The paper deals with the accuracy of the proposed imitational model of solar power plant (SPP) in its operating conditions at modeling in well-known software packages. The necessity of solving this question is dictated by the fact that the inaccuracy of simulation programs allows one to argue that the improvement of the simulation model cannot be performed correctly due to calculation errors in the program itself. The results of simulation of electric power generation by SPP in Matlab package are presented. It was found out, which of the packages meets the set requirements more exactly (by calculation of error of deviation of mathematical modeling and experimental data) and from the point of view of the method incorporated in the program algorithms. Experimental data were compared with the results of simulation modeling.
