modelPVSimpleOriented

Model of a simple PV panel with orientation

Extends from Buildings.Electrical.AC.OnePhase.Sources.PVSimpleOriented (Simple PV model with orientation).

Information

Model of a simple photovoltaic array.

This model takes as an input the direct and diffuse solar radiation from the weather bus.

See Buildings.Electrical.AC.OnePhase.Sources.PVSimpleOriented for more information.

Revisions

  • March 23, 2022, by Michael Wetter:
    Corrected documentation string for parameter A.
  • September 16, 2021, by Michael Wetter:
    Removed parameter lat as this is now obtained from the weather data reader.
    This is for IBPSA, #1477.
  • October 7, 2019, by Michael Wetter:
    Corrected model to include DC/AC conversion in output P.
    This is for issue 1577.
  • August 24, 2014, by Marco Bonvini:
    Revised documentation.
