PVsyst v6.81 1. Glass refractive index (n) appears to be 1.526, not 1.53 as shown in Hidden Parameters. 2. It does not appear that n=1.37 for EVA (in Hidden Parameters) is used for "Normal glass" or "AR coating" scenarios. 3. With the following assumptions, I get the same (tab-separated) results as PVsyst: --No ARC --Glass n=1.526 --No refractive index applied for EVA AOI IAM_PVsyst IAM_kjs55 0 1.000 1.000 30 0.998 0.998 50 0.981 0.981 60 0.948 0.948 70 0.862 0.862 75 0.776 0.776 80 0.636 0.636 85 0.403 0.402 90 0.000 0.000 4.
