modelIncidenceAngle

Test model for solar incidence angle

Extends from Modelica.Icons.Example (Icon for runnable examples).

Information

This example computes the solar incidence angle on tilted surfaces. There are fives surfaces, a horizontal surface and a surface that faces Norths, East, South and West.
