[TRNSYS-users] Combined paralle and series collector array with different orientation

[Jeff Thornton]

You'll need to drag out two collectors. The first should have an
area of 10x the single panel area and have the number in series set to
1. Connect the output from this collector to another collector where the
area is set to 4x the single panel area and the number in series set to
2.

can help you set the collector parameters?

there are 5 collectors parallel connected (each 2m2, south-west
orientated, tilted 30 degrees) and then they're serial connected to
another 2 collectors(each 2,5 m2 which are parallel connected between
