Solar array load flow studies

I created a solar array with a inverter, connected to the IEEE9 bus system. to study the load flow, matlab does not recognize the PV array as a source (array connected Bus does not recognize as PV bus). Any solutions to this matter will be much appreciated...

Hello Charith,

the solar array is not a supported load flow block. Please see this for supported blocks: https://www.mathworks.com/help/physmod/sps/powersys/ref/loadflowbus.html

Hello Mr. Joel Van Sickel

I am also have the same problem , I created a solar array with a inverter, connected to the IEEE 5 bus system. to study the load flow, matlab does not recognize the PV array as a source (array connected Bus does not recognize as PV bus). and I try using Unbalanced load flow block ,but the problem was not solved..... Is it possible to provide any suggestion to solve this problem with thanks and appreciation?

this is the best example out there in how to get the equivalent of a solar panel in a system using load flow: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/51137-one-year-simulation-in-one-minute
