The online plotter does not automatically create an output file.
There is a mode of the online plotter that does create an output
file. However, I would recommend that you use either Type25 or
Type46 to create output files. Both components are used in examples
and I would recommend that you look at them to understand how they
should be set up.<br>
kind regards,<br>

If you want to leverage TRNSHD with the TRNSYS3D SketchUp
Plugin, you will
<br>
need to model the PVs as windows (on each roof surface), as the
shading
<br>
insolation matrix is only applied to window surfaces. Also, the
surrounding
<br>
building objects need to be modeled as shading objects, as I
don't think
<br>
generic walls will be accounted for in the shading matrix
calculations.
<br>
Then you can specify a window material made of nothing so that
irradiance
<br>
passing through is not reduced by the window material. After
that, you can
<br>
have the irradiance passing through that window (representing
your pv
<br>
aperture), reduced by shading objects, as an output to compare
against
<br>
different configurations or to pass to an actual pv model
(though this
<br>
number would only be valid in a pv model if your pv panels have
advanced
<br>
power electronics to reduce partial shading losses). I hope that
helps and
<br>
is clear enough.
<br>
<br>
If anyone has a better way to do this, I'd be interested to know
as well. I
<br>
know there are specific components for inter-row pv shading
calcs, but
<br>
those don't account for nearby objects.
<br>
<br>
Best,
<br>
Luke
