Saikat,
Please make sure that you are using the 4th output from Type194 (array power at maximum power point) instead of the 3rd output (array power). You should click on the "more" button for each of these outputs to understand the difference between the two but in short, the 3rd output is the power that the array puts out at the user defined load voltage (an input). If you have left the load voltage unconnected and defaulted to zero then the array power at 0V is 0W. The 4th output shows the peak power that the array could be generating under ideal load circumstances. Most PV arrays are outfitted with a maximum power point tracker to ensure that they operate at or near the ideal point.
kind regards,
David
I am a student, trying to make a TRNSYS model for Solar PV system. I have made the following:
I want to obtain a plot for array power in the online plotter which I am not getting. Is the connections right or is it missing something? Please suggest necessary corrections..
