For almost all cases, TRNSYS outputs are average values over a
timestep. An output of watts would therefore be the average
instantaneous power generated by the PV over the course of the hour (W,
not Wh, and kJ/hr, not kJ).<br>
Kind regards,<br>

I have a small doubt with the time step.<br>
If I have my time step set to 1 hour, the values I obtain of power,
which output units are in W, are really energy units of value W*h,
aren´t they?<br>
I allways thought it was like that, but now I am obtaining very low pic
power for every hour in a photovoltaic array and I am begining to doubt.<br>
Thanks!<br>
