Hi Paul, 

I am trying to model a Single-Axis Tracking System which is pole mounted. 

My assumption is that I just need to choose the option based on the height of the pole. However, can I just select the option 'ground mounted or rack mounted', since the approx height of the pole is similar to a normal ground mounted installation. (I understand that this option has further implications on the effect of wind speed and is used in the calculation of the cell temperature).

Is this correct? Otherwise can you please point me in the right direction? 

Thanks a lot, 
Ajinkya

Hi Ajinkya,

Your approach sounds reasonable to me. Be sure to adjust the installation and operating costs as appropriate to account for the cost of installing and maintaining the tracking equipment.

Best regards,
Paul.
