Questions about CEC module model

1. In the module area section, is it correct to consider the entire module area including the frame of it?
Yes. The module area definition SAM's Help system describes it as including spaces between cells and occupied by the frame.
2. In the data sheet which I have, HSL 60 S POLY PV (Hanwha) module, NOCT stands for Normal operating cell temperature. Is it the same as Nominal operating cell temperature in SAM?
I think so. The standard meaning of the abbreviation NOCT in the context of the field of photovoltaics is "nominal operating cell temperature."
3. In SAM Help, it is mentioned that the model does not make NOCT adjustments for the standoff height Greater than 3.5 in and this case, the Nominal operating cell temperature value should be at the condition appropriate for the type of installations. Does it mean that for this case it is needed to ask the PV seller to give the NOCT for this specific condition and then put it instead of what is provided in the data sheet as NOCT? Actually, based on the standard UL 1703, the least standoff height needs to be 4 in. This is a general rule for installation of all HSL PV series (even those provided in the SAM CEC library) and I just want to know in those cases how model considers the effect of greater than 3.5 in standoff height?
SAM's CEC module model with the NOCT temperature correction model assumes that for a distance between the roof surface and back of the PV module of 3.5 inches and greater the effect of airflow behind the module is the same. For a standoff height of 3.5 inches or greater, it uses the rated NOCT value without any adjustment. For smaller standoff heights, it increases the NOCT temperature to account for reduced airflow behind the module. If you are using the CEC module model with user-entered specifications and have a reason to use a different NOCT value than the one provided in the manufacturer data sheet, you can enter a different value. You might try different values to see what effect they have on your results.
