functionTimeEquationClim2000

Information

Function computing the equation of time according to (t0 + t) given in seconds using the method from CLIM2000

Hypothesis and equations

The function returns the equation of time according to (t0 + t) given in seconds using the method from CLIM2000:

ET=(0.0002 - 0.4197*cos(wd) + 3.2265*cos(2*wd) + 0.0903*cos(3*wd) + 7.3509*sin(wd) + 9.3912*sin(2*wd) + 0.3361*sin(3*wd))/60.0

Where wd=2*pi/365.25*d et day of the year according to t0+t

The year is supposed to be not bisextile.
