Re: [TRNSYS-users] PV example



Kent,
  The Type194 "mode" parameter (parameter 1) is set to 1, which indicates a PV without an inverter. It should be set to 2 for a PV with an inverter. The proforma's "more" button had an error in Trnsys16 (fixed with Trnsys17) that said that mode 2 was not implemented when in fact it was. You should be able to do an "Edit:Replace" on your PV using the Type194b proforma and get that mode parameter changed to 2.
Best,
 David

I'm using the example PV file to simulate an array with 288 Sharp NE170U1 panels.  I've taken the example file, input the module parameters into the EES which seemed to run okay, but I get an error after the EES runs (I multiplied the Temp Coefficient of Isc by the short circuit current to reflect units requested in the EES).  The EES updates the Type parameters with the calculation results.  I've updated the module area, # series (12), # parallel (4), for a total of 48 modules per inverter in both the Type and the example's Parameters equation.  I've input the inverter performances curves into a txt file, following the format provided in the type reference.  Upon running, the PV type (194) reports that it's expecting 24 parameters while 29 are specified, as if there's 24 Parameters in the pro-forma, yet there are 29.  I'm currently using TRNSYS 16.  Any pointers would be appreciated.
