Amit,

  There is a component in the TESS Utility library (Type572: equipment 
fouling) that was designed for this purposes. The disadvantage of it is 
that you have to define the reduction in production efficiency as a 
function of the dust. However, once you do the component will linearly 
degrade component performance and will then account for periodic cleanings.

   If you do not have access to that component you are probably best 
multiplying the performance of the PV by a performance reduction factor 
using an equation.

kind regards,

  David
