Choose band gap based on material

Open markcampanelli opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Currently the material band gap is hard coded (for x-Si) independently of the Technol read from the PAN file, i.e.,

m['EgRef'] = 1.121 # The energy bandgap at reference temperature in units of eV

If we could get/reverse engineer the specification for the possible Technol values in the PAN file, then we could implement the other band gaps listed in the PVsyst documentation here.

good point. I will implement a lookup based on the available options in PVSYST and the values referenced in the docs.
