Hi Nathan,
The reason we did not make the "NOCT method parameters" available as parametric inputs for the CEC Performance Model with Module Database option is that those parameters only work when the NOCT/Heat transfer method radio buttons are set to NOCT method, and, unless you are paying careful attention, it would be easy to forget to set the radio button to the correct position because you cannot see them from the Parametric setup page.
For the CEC Performance Model with User Entered Specifications option, only the NOCT method is available, so we made the NOCT parameters available as parametric inputs.
Can you do your analysis with the CEC model with user specifications? We can make the NOCT parameters for the CEC model with database inputs too, but want to minimize the chance for confusion.
Thanks,
Paul.
