Create a PVshape for PV generator

[Pablo Mateo Bedoya Blandón]

Hello,

This is to ask for your support about how to create the csv file in order to charge this as another daily profile.

Is there any template to use?

Thanks,

Pablo Bedoya

If it is just the Mult or Pmult value, simply enter the value, one to a line in the file.

If you set Interval=0 (see help) you will have to specify two values on each line of the file separated by a comma typically. The first value will be the time corresponding to the value. The time unit is hours.

Dear Roger,
Thank you very much for your support.
I have been trying to implement the curve for PV system, however I continuo with some troubles when I charge the csv file configured as below (using only one column and 24 cells):

0,0.0
1,0.0
2,0.0
3,0.0
4,0.0
5,0.0
6,0.0
7,0.0
8,0.1
9,0.4
10,0.8
11,0.96
12,1.0
13,1.0
14,0.98
15,0.8
16,0.7
17,0.6
18,0.2
19,0.0
20,0.0
21,0.0
22,0.0
23,0.0

The CSV file is attached.

Attention:
Please, notice that my computer uses "," comma, to separate decimals. I wonder if this is normal.

When I create the new LoadShape, I configure the following buttons:

Interval: 0 h
File type: CSV
File Path: "I search the file path"
No. columns: 1
P Base: 0
Q Base: 0
P Max: 0
Q Max: 0
No. of Points: 24
And Then click in "Create"

Please, let me know if I am missing some important information.

Thanks for your support.

Hi dude,

Sorry Mr. Montenegro,

One last question about this issue. So, the CSV file should typed as:
(Using only one column)

0.0
0.0
0.0
0.0
0.0
0.0
0.0
0.0
0.1
0.4
0.8
0.96
1.0
1.0
0.98
0.8
0.7
0.6
0.2
0.0
0.0
0.0
0.0
0.0
Using "comma" or "dot"?

Interval: 0 h
File type: CSV
File Path: "I search the file path"
No. columns: 1
P Base: 0
Q Base: 0
P Max: 0
Q Max: 0
No. of Points: 24
And Then click in "Create"

Is this panel configuration correct?

Im very sorry for my misunderstanding.

Regards,
Pablo B.

Correct, however, your parameters should be as follows:

Interval: 1 h
File type: CSV
File Path: "I search the file path"
No. columns: 1
P Base: 0
Q Base: 0
P Max: 0
Q Max: 0
No. of Points: 24

Best regards

Mr. Montenegro,

This is the new failure that the system shows once I include the LoadShape as we have mentioned.

The meter shows values like: Inf, NaN. The system does not run.

Here the print of PV configuration.
Thanks

Hello,

Yes, this is because the IEEE37 node test system is a delta connected system, and you PV is defined as wye connected, leaving the ground connection for that element floating. To correct it, please change the connection type from wye to delta on your PV.

Best regards

Davis

You are right. I have upgraded this connection and the system worked very well!
Thank for your support.
