Information

This component computes the hemispherical diffuse irradiation on a tilted surface using an anisotropic sky model proposed by Perez. For a definition of the parameters, see the User's Guide.

Revisions

  • September 6, 2021, by Ettore Zanetti:
    Removed parameter lat as it is now obtained from the weather data bus.
    This is for IBPSA, #1477.
  • November 14, 2015, by Michael Wetter:
    Added min, max and unit attributes for rho.
  • June 6, 2012, by Wangda Zuo:
    Added contributions from sky and ground that were separated in base class.
  • February 25, 2012, by Michael Wetter:
    Changed component to get zenith angle from weather bus.
  • May 24, 2010, by Wangda Zuo:
    First implementation.
