[TRNSYS-users] Collector array shading Type 30 and radiation model

[PAULUS Cedric 217865]

Dear TRNSYS-Users,

I would like to use the type of collector array shading between rows (type 30) connected to a weather data reading and processing (type 15) in order to simulate performance of large scale solar collector field.

I made some first check only with one row in order to find normally the same results as without collector shading. The beam radiation is the same (normal) but the total radiation is lower due to a lower diffuse radiation (not normal). When I check the type 30 model it seems that an isotropic sky model has been implemented in order to calculate the diffuse radiation. Am I right ?

As I prefer to use the Perez 1999 Model (5 for the parameter "Tilted Surface Radiation Mode" of type 15), I would like to know if this model was or is planned to be implemented in the type 30 ?

Thanks
Best Regards,

Cédric Paulus
