Information
This example demonstrates the implementation of the IDEAS.Fluid.PVTCollectors.PVTQuasiDynamicCollector for a variable fluid flow rate and weather data from San Francisco, CA, USA.
The collector modeled here is an uncovered PVT collector, also referred to as a WISC (Wind and Infrared Sensitive Collector). These collectors are sensitive to ambient wind and infrared radiation due to the absence of a glazing layer. They can be either unglazed insulated (UI) or unglazed non-insulated (UN), depending on the thermal insulation applied to the back side of the collector.
This test model uses the IDEAS.Fluid.PVTCollectors.Data.Uncovered.UI_Validation record. 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.
