I would steer you towards comparing against the PV/T collectors
that are available in the TESS Electrical library if possible
instead of Type50.<br>

<p>Hi David, </p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Thanks for answer and suggestion! Actually, I am trying to
compare the performance of simple PV ( type 194) and PV/T
collector type ( type 50E thats only the one which is
providing the power output). </p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p><span> The problem that I am facing while using type 50E
is that it accepts properties of a single cell </span></p>

<div><span><span>Sandeep,<br>
the SolarCellPerformance() subroutine contains some
code that allows it to model both standard flat plate
and concentrating PV collectors. CL and CH refer to
values of the concentration ratio; the ratio of the
aperture area to the absorber area. Ao is a coefficient
that is used in the concentrating PV collector model.
Values for certain panels are given in the
\Trnsys17\Examples\Data Files\Type50-SolCel.dat file.
<br>
<br>
I might mention as a side note that unless you
absolutely have to use a call to the
</span></span><span><span>SolarCellPerformance()
subroutine, I would recommend that you rely much more on
the PV modeling methods in Types94 and 194. They are
much more up to date modeling algorithms.<br>
