recordUN_Jonas2018

Parameter set for a uncovered, non-insulated PVT collector (WISC type) based on Jonas et al. (2018)

A record of IDEAS.Fluid.PVTCollectors.Data.Generic.

Information

This record contains thermal and electrical parameters for an uncovered and non-insulated PVT collector (WISC type), based on experimental identification results from Jonas et al. (2018). These parameters were used in the validation of a TRNSYS PVT collector model under ISO 9806:2013 and converted to the ISO 9806:2017 quasi‑dynamic formulation used by IDEAS.Fluid.PVTCollectors.PVTCollector using the Excel file located at IDEAS.Resources.Data.Fluid.PVTCollectors.

This record can be used as a generic representation of a WISC-type collector. However, if you know the brand and model of the PVT collector you plan to simulate or install, it is recommended to use the actual datasheet parameters in a custom IDEAS.Fluid.PVTCollectors.Data.GenericQuasiDynamic record.
