Description

The PV-DesignPro suite is a dedicated tool for designing and analyzing standalone photovoltaic systems, incorporating hourly simulations that leverage climate data from 239 locations across the U.S. Developed in collaboration with Sandia National Laboratories, this enhanced software builds on the original PV-DesignPro-S model. Version 6.0 is compatible with various Windows operating systems, including Windows 95, 98, NT, Win2000, and Vista, and allows users to simulate the operation of photovoltaic energy systems over the course of a year, adapting to selected climate conditions and system specifications. The Solar Design Studio CD-ROM features three distinct versions of PV-DesignPro: "PV-DesignPro-S" for systems with battery storage, "PV-DesignPro-G" for grid-connected systems without storage, and "PV-DesignPro-P" for water pumping applications. Each version is designed to provide precise and comprehensive insights into expected system power output, ensuring that users can effectively plan their photovoltaic installations. Moreover, the software serves as an essential resource for engineers and designers aiming to optimize the efficiency and performance of solar energy systems.

Description

T*SOL is a simulation tool designed to assess the performance of thermal solar systems. It caters to various applications including domestic water heating, heating augmentation, swimming pool heating, and process heating. With T*SOL, you can effectively plan and size your solar thermal installations, including storage solutions and collector configurations, even for east-west roof orientations, while analyzing their economic viability. At the outset of your design journey, you have access to a wide array of relevant systems tailored for heating water, supporting heating needs, managing swimming pools, and addressing process heat demands. The software offers dimensioning recommendations throughout the design phase and allows for parameter adjustments, enabling you to discover the most effective combinations of storage capacity and collector area. Furthermore, the simulation outputs, including energy values, temperatures, and volumes, can be visualized in various graphical formats. Users can select from options like bar charts and line graphs, with the flexibility to adjust the time frame from a single day to an entire year, facilitating a comprehensive analysis of the system's performance over different periods. This versatility makes T*SOL an invaluable resource for optimizing solar thermal system designs.
