User-defined HTF in Parabolic trough was created by ar.rahbari
Hi All

I have been trying to add a new user-defined HTF in SAM. I know that there were some comments in the same line, however, I still haven't had a chance to sort it out. The error I am getting right now is that "No suitable pipe schedule found for this plant design". I have tried to change a number of parameters in the model, still facing the same problem. Would you please let me know how I can deal with this?

Cheers

Hi Alireza,

Please check that you are using the correct units in the custom HTF table. See the "Custom HTF" topic in Help, under "CSP Parabolic Trough" in the table of contents. You can open the Help system by pressing the F1 key or clicking the Help button in the top right corner of the SAM window.

Best regards,
Paul.
