    <p>Janeet,</p>
    <p> Once you have made the modification to the proforma, save it,
      then right click on the component in your simulation and select
      "replace" from the context menu. Browse to the location of the
      modified proforma and click "ok"</p>
    <p> As to your other question, I am afraid that we are no longer
      supporting v16.<br>
    </p>
    <p>kind regards,</p>
    <p> David</p>

        <div>Currently working on Trnsys 16. Please could you guide me

        <div>However still not able to insert a value greater than 1 in

        <div>Have noticed 1 more thing with the model : At times of zero
          radiation and pump working the thermal energy is negative? I
          am interpreting it to be that at night times energy is lost
          from the fluid to the surroundings. However the same is not
          the case of the pure thermal collectors. Please could you
          explain this behavior?</div>

            <p>Janeet,</p>
            <p> Your first two questions are things that have been fixed
              in the most recent version of TRNSYS. I am not sure when
              they were fixed but I think they have been fixed for
              awhile. Which version of Trnsys are you using? If it is an
              older version, you can fix them by modifying the proformas
              yourself. The errors are in the proformas and not in the
              code.<br>
            </p>
            <p> As for your third question, you'll need to send that to
              your distributor. If you aren't sure who to contact, send
              me a direct email and I will point you in the correct
              direction.</p>
            <p>kind regards,</p>

                <div>I am trying to simulate a parabolic trough

                  Have included the defualt SOLCEL data file. </div>
                <div><br>
                </div>
                <div>Had a few queries:</div>
                <div>1. Parameter 3 - ratio of aperture to absorber area
                  - max allowable value is 1 whereas the concentration
                  ratio of 55 is to be simulated. Please can you advise
                  a solution to this.</div>
                <div>2. Input 4 - Incident radiation is required in
                  KJ/hr or KJ/hr/m2?</div>
                <div>3. Input 7 - Voltage applied to array - anything
