6. Input Parameter• Under this section we computing

Orientation – Optimum tilt of module for collecting maximum radiation, pitch to limit the shading losses.

• System – project capacity or area, Selection the of PV Modules & Make, Inverter Rating & Make, Series & no. of Strings Combination.

• Details losses – Thermal parameter, Ohmic Losses, Module quality-LID-Mismatch, Soiling losses.


011-41605551

Orientation • Simulate optimum plane tilt w.r.t.

yearly meteo yield & pitch selection to limit shading losses.

• Follow the steps Calculating optimum plane tilt (Calculating for

fixed tilt) Default page look like i.e. Tilt 30 ̊, Azimuth 0 ̊ Select Fixed Tilted Plane in field type option > enter the latitude value & Azimuth value in field parameter > Change the plane tilt value so that Loss by respected to optimum should be 0% & correspond Global radiation on collector plane should be Maximum.

System• What u have with ? Plant capacity or

area , Module & Inverter details.• Follow the steps Enter the planned power or available area, the

information provided by the client. Select the PV Module > Sort the module base on

power or Technology > scroll down the button, Select the Manufacturing company from the list & along with their Module type.


011-41605551

Inverter Selection Pre decide the type of inverter i.e. string or

central. Go to > Select the inverter make from the list >

sort the inverter based on Power or Voltage. Inverter should be sized in such a way that under

loading & over loading (DC to AC ratio) with in acceptable range.

A message will appear on dialog box i.e. indicate if there is any error during the selection of inverter.

Go the design the array > check no of modules, modules in series & module string.

Click on OK > Proceed the next steps.

Losses Ohmic lossesGo to DC circuit: Ohmic losses for the array > Click on loss fraction at STC > Enter the value in between 1.10% - 1.30% (these losses computed considering ohmic losses of array to string combiner box / string monitoring box and string combiner box to inverter DC input.)These losses occur to due to resistance to DC wire in the Module string to string combiner box / String monitoring box and string combiner box to inverter DC input.


011-41605551

Losses AC Ohmic Wiring lossesGo to AC circuit: Inverter to injection point > Click on loss fraction at STC > Enter the value in between 0.50% - 0.80% (these losses occur at inverter output to point of injection of energy into the grid (switch yard). The losses include Ohmic losses in inverter output to LT panel , HT panel.) Transmission line losses are not included on this because it depends upon the point of injection / joint metering panel as per PPA & respective state regulation.The Voltage Drop should be below 2.1%.


011-41605551

External Transformer • Go to external transformer > iron loss > enter

0.10% or enter Fixed loss of transformer if known.

• Resistive/ Inductive losses > enter 0.10%• Iron loss : are fixed losses of transformer occur

due to hyterersis and eddy current loss in the core of transformer. Silicon is used to reduce these losses.

• Ohmic/ Inductive loss: are variable losses due to resistance / Inductance of copper winding and loading of the transformer.


011-41605551

Module Quality Loss Go to module quality loss section > Enter the value the according to average deviation of the module tolerance power is positive +3% then module quality loss shall be +3/2= 1.5%.


011-41605551

LID Light Induced Degradation Initial degradation of solar PV module occurs in the very first hours of operation in the actual site. After certain period of time (3.4 months) the power output of the module stabilizes on the certain level compare to STC power.Typically poly C-Si Module degrade @1.0%Mono C-Si Module degrade @ 1.5% Thin film Module degrade @ 2%


011-41605551

Mismatch LossThe mismatch loss is mainly due to the fact that in a string of module, the lowest current drives the current of whole string. This is due to material property of Silicon which is used for the PV module manufacturing. Now when installing real modules in the field, the characteristics of the module are never rigorously identic.Power Loss at MPP The difference between the effective operation conditions and the maximum available power plant. Foe MPP use (grid inverter) the loss is neglected in PV Syst. For fixed operating voltage, it can be quantified from the output simulation result.Go to mismatch Section > Enter the value (it typically happen at 1%) & loss when running at fixed voltage not relevant when MPPT operation (it typically limit to 1.1%)


011-41605551

Soiling LossAccumulation of dirt and its effect on the system performance is an uncertainty which strongly depends on the environment of the system, raining conditions etc.

Considering the project location in Rajasthan where module are frequent face the dust/dirt/sand the soiling loss so power loss can be up to 3% and location like Karnataka/Uttarakhand the power loss can be up to 2% because of less prone to dust & dirt environment.

This power loss can be reduce by increasing the frequency of module cleaning.
