Hi Paul,
I can't find how to set the GCR in the Detailed PV Model.  I'm on Guam, and because it is closer to the equator, I should be able to have a higher GCR without shading than in the states, but I can't seem to figure out how to change the GCR.  Help?
Thanks,
Rob

Hi Rob,

The GCR is an input for each enabled subarray on the System Design page:



I have listed the variable names for setting the value in LK script or via the SSC API below. Note that the subarray must be enabled for the GCR for that subarray to work, and the range of valid values is  0.01 < GCR ≤ 3:
Code:
subarray1_gcr subarray2_enable = 1 subarray2_gcr subarray3_enable = 1 subarray3_gcr subarray3_enable = 1 subarray4_gcr

Best regards,
Paul.

Thanks Paul,
Not long after I asked, I found it.  Sorry to bother you when it was right in front of my nose.  :-)
