Generic data record for PVT collector models
Extends from IDEAS.Fluid.SolarCollectors.Data.BaseClasses.Generic (Generic data record providing common inputs for ASHRAE93 and EN12975 solar collector models).
Information
Record containing both thermal and electrical performance parameters for PVT collectors. Thermal parameters, tested according to the ISO 9806:2013 quasi-dynamic procedure, apply to covered and uncovered designs, while electrical parameters and system loss factors follow from the manufacturer datasheets.
