There is an example that shows how to obtain an IV curve if you
have not already found it. It is located
in..\Trnsys17\Examples\Photovoltaics\IVcurve.tpf. The trick to the
example, I think, is that the simulation time is used as a proxy for
the load voltage. I am not entirely surprised that you are seeing
some odd behavior near the open circuit voltage and short circuit
voltage points as the mathematics of the PV model become very
difficult to solve at those points.<br>
Kind regards,<br>

<div>Hello to all,</div>
<div>I am new to TRNSYS and am currently trying to obtain very
simple IV curves for one value of irradiation (70W/m2).</div>
<div>I have obtained experimental results by varying the
resistance across a panel using a decade box, and would like
to imitate my results on TRNSYS for validation.</div>
<div>I have tried to manipulate the simple IV curve example,
however I obtain an IV curve which zigzags around the short
circuit current and apparently has an infitinite open circuit
voltage.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Any help is truly appreciated, and sorry if this is a very
simple request.</div>
