This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Fill Factor of Solar Cell - Fill Factor of Solar Cell is a measure of how closely the I-V characteristic of the cell approaches being a rectangle.
Current at Maximum Power - (Measured in Ampere) - Current at Maximum Power is the current at which maximum power occurs .
Voltage at Maximum Power - (Measured in Volt) - Voltage at Maximum Power is the voltage at which maximum power occurs.
Short Circuit Current in Solar cell - (Measured in Ampere) - Short Circuit Current in Solar Cell is the current through the solar cell when the voltage across the solar cell is zero.
Open Circuit Voltage - (Measured in Volt) - Open Circuit Voltage is the difference of electrical potential between two terminals of a device when disconnected from any circuit. There is no external load connected.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Current at Maximum Power: 0.11 Ampere --> 0.11 Ampere No Conversion Required
Voltage at Maximum Power: 0.41 Volt --> 0.41 Volt No Conversion Required
Short Circuit Current in Solar cell: 80 Ampere --> 80 Ampere No Conversion Required
Open Circuit Voltage: 0.191 Volt --> 0.191 Volt No Conversion Required
