shading and tracking

[Abhijeet Mhaisne]

I have 6 deg tilted module on tracker so which system is suitable for simulation ? Either Tracking tilted or horiz. N-S axis or Tracking Two axis frame NS ? Please give suggestion with short example. Thank you.

If I understand well, you have put modules on trackers, with a tilt angle of 6° with respect to the horizontal axis.

With this configuration you should use the configuration "Tracking 2 axis, frame NS". And here you have to "fix" the module tilts by defining Min tilt/frame = Max tilt/frame = 6°.

NB: Don't use the Backtracking option: it is not suited for that: it concerns the tilt on the frame only.

Thank you,Sir.

Dear Sirs!

Could you explain me how program PV Syst calculate:

- shading from nearest string of solar panels,

- optimal distance between strings.

My problem is: program shows me that shading area is more then area for solar panels, what shall I do in this case?

Sincerely yours,

Michael
