[EnergyPlus_Support] PV Performance Inconsistency in Results





Linda,

 

I have a question about PV Simple performance.

I’ve tested different cases with a PV surface, which is half fully shaded and the same PV surface split into two halves.

I don’t know why but the PV with its half fully shaded performs better than a half of the PV (when PV panel is split into two halves); 13% difference.

I have attached the files that I have tested and drawing that shows each model and results.

Could you please advise why these 2 cases described above do not perform equally?

I would like to use the PV Simple for solar energy potential assessment for different shading patterns from different adjacent buildings.

 

Thanks and Regards

 

Maciej Cichy
