Member Function Documentation

duty()

string dss::classic::IPVSystems::duty ( )

inline

Name of the load shape to use for duty cycle dispatch simulations such as for solar ramp rate studies.

Must be previously defined as a Loadshape object. Typically would have time intervals of 1-5 seconds.

First()

int32_t dss::classic::IPVSystems::First ( )

inline

Sets the first PVSystem active.

Returns 0 if no more.

IrradianceNow()

double dss::classic::IPVSystems::IrradianceNow ( )

inline

Returns the current irradiance value for the active PVSystem.

Use it to know what's the current irradiance value for the PV during a simulation.

Next()

int32_t dss::classic::IPVSystems::Next ( )

inline

Sets the next PVSystem active.

Returns 0 if no more.

Tdaily()

string dss::classic::IPVSystems::Tdaily ( )

inline

Temperature shape to use for daily simulations.

Must be previously defined as a TShape object of 24 hrs, typically. The PVSystem element uses this TShape to determine the Pmpp from the Pmpp vs T curve. Units must agree with the Pmpp vs T curve.

Tduty()

string dss::classic::IPVSystems::Tduty ( )

inline

Temperature shape to use for duty cycle dispatch simulations such as for solar ramp rate studies.

Must be previously defined as a TShape object. Typically would have time intervals of 1-5 seconds. Designate the number of points to solve using the Set Number=xxxx command. If there are fewer points in the actual shape, the shape is assumed to repeat. The PVSystem model uses this TShape to determine the Pmpp from the Pmpp vs T curve. Units must agree with the Pmpp vs T curve.

Tyearly()

string dss::classic::IPVSystems::Tyearly ( )

inline

Temperature shape to use for yearly simulations.

Must be previously defined as a TShape object. If this is not specified, the Daily dispatch shape, if any, is repeated during Yearly solution modes. The PVSystem element uses this TShape to determine the Pmpp from the Pmpp vs T curve. Units must agree with the Pmpp vs T curve.

yearly()

string dss::classic::IPVSystems::yearly ( )

inline

Dispatch shape to use for yearly simulations.

Must be previously defined as a Loadshape object. If this is not specified, the Daily dispatch shape, if any, is repeated during Yearly solution modes. In the default dispatch mode, the PVSystem element uses this loadshape to trigger State changes.
