Information

This model usually takes the appropriate solar data from the bus. If the correct data is not contained by the bus, custom solar data is calculated.

Revisions

  • May 22, 2022, by Filip Jorissen:
    Fixed Modelica specification compatibility issue. See #1254
  • August 12, 2020, by Filip Jorissen:
    Using precomputed data for ceilings/floors even if azimuth angle mismatches. See #1160
  • April 26, 2020, by Filip Jorissen:
    Refactored SolBus to avoid many instances in PropsBus. See #1131
  • November 28, 2019 by Ian Beausoleil-Morrison:
    Add RealOutput for coefficient for forced convection and get this from SolBus. See #1089
  • August 9, 2018 by Filip Jorissen:
    Revised implementation for checking solData index and added assert to avoid duplicate entries in incAndAziInBus. See #881.
  • March 26, 2018 by Iago Cupeiro & Damien Picard:
    Solved bug in linearisation
  • January 21, 2018 by Filip Jorissen:
    Added solTim connection for revised azimuth computations. See #753.
  • May 26, 2017 by Filip Jorissen:
    Revised implementation for renamed ports HDirTil etc. See #735.
  • March 25, 2016 by Filip Jorissen:
    Reworked radSol implementation to use RealInputs instead of weaBus. This simplifies translation and interpretation.
  • February 10, 2015 by Filip Jorissen:
    First implementation.
