Sandeep, the SolarCellPerformance() subroutine contains some code that allows it to model both standard flat plate and concentrating PV collectors. CL and CH refer to values of the concentration ratio; the ratio of the aperture area to the absorber area. Ao is a coefficient that is used in the concentrating PV collector model. Values for certain panels are given in the \Trnsys17\Examples\Data Files\Type50-SolCel.dat file. I might mention as a side note that unless you absolutely have to use a call to the SolarCellPerformance() subroutine, I would recommend that you rely much more on the PV modeling methods in Types94 and 194. They are much more up to date modeling algorithms. kind regards,
