<DIV><FONT face=Verdana color=#000080 size=2>Hello David, thank you for your
help! Now I encounter a new problem. Current to load not current to
battery exsits when the heat pump is not in operation. Though the irradiance
during that time is low, but I think the battery bank should be charged
when it's not fully charged. Thank you in advance! </FONT></DIV>

</FONT>My apologies for the delay, I am still working on trying to get the
parameters for your PV module generated. While Type194 is the preferred model,
you could use Type94 for the time being. <BR><BR> As for the mode
parameter in Type194, you don't need to worry about it. For a time, we were
adding an extra "mode" parameter to all new Types that we wrote just in case we
needed it in the future so that we wouldn't run into backwards compatibility
problems. Type194 only has one mode.<BR><BR> Lastly, the voltage of your
PV array and the voltage of your battery bank typically need to match each
other. A battery charge controller can handle some differences but the idea is
usually that you want your DC PV array to run at a voltage that is a bit higher
than the battery bank voltage so that it can be used to charge the batteries
without a step-down voltage converter. The number of cells within a PV module
obviously can't be changed. However, the number of modules that you connect in
series and parallel can be. Your PV array will run at multiples of about 17.5V,
which is about normal for charging a 12V battery system I would think. If you
have PVs in series, you would need to also have batteries in series as
well.<BR>Kind regards,<BR> David<BR><BR>On 3/14/2011 08:21, lvguangzhao

<DIV><FONT color=#000080>It's a mono-silicon based panel. All of the

<DIV><FONT color=#000080>I also want to know which type I should use,

sure whether it has been implemented now.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>I have another question about the capacity of a battery bank. The
capacity of a battery bank will not vary with the number of cells in
series. So if it means that the cell capacity should vary with the number
of cells in series?</DIV>

<DIV></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>Guangzhao,<BR> I also need to know the
temperature coefficient of short circuit current and the temperature
coefficient of open circuit voltage. Both of these should be listed on the
manufacturer's data sheet. Also, is this a silicon-based panel or some other
material? The reason I ask is that silicon cells typically run at about 0.5V
per cell so 36 in series would have an open cell voltage more like 18V than
21.5V. Its not impossible of course.<BR>Kind

<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>Guangzhao,<BR> Could you please send me
an email containing the parameters that you are entering into the EES plugin
for Type194? I have run into some similar problems in the past and may be
able to help solve this one. It sounds from what you describe as though the
problem is in launching the plugin, not actually in having the plugin solve
so perhaps you only need to send me the Trnsys Studio project that causes
the error.<BR>Kind regards,<BR> David<BR><BR><BR>On 3/1/2011 00:47,
