Basic I-V Curve simulation
Basic I-V Curve simulation
The Elgar TerraSAS user interface is intuitive,
graphically colorful and simple to learn. I-V
curves are created by entering simple parametric
data or by importing data from the NREL SAM
database. It is not necessary to use Java Script or
any other Script hosting to create an IV curve and
execute it.
Dynamic Irradiance profile display
The Elgar TerraSAS profile display of Irradiance
and temperature is unique and innovative. It
enables inverter designers to easily load and
implement standards based cloudy condition
scenarios, such as the weighted efficiency
measurements called out in EN50530 or
California Energy Commission. The ability to
model dynamic performance profiles allows
complex test validation in any situation in a
repeatible, reliable manner. These standard
profiles are impossible to simulate with a real
array. It can also be controlled to a very fine
degree and real profiles can be entered and run
from actual speed to 100 times actual speed for
accelerated lifecycle tests.
