OPTIMUM ORIENTATION




Notes:

  • To obtain the optimum angles for a face you must do an equidistant distribution of construction points.
  • Select the cells in which you want estimate optimun angle (e.g.: winter, afternoon...) Hourly irradiation in non selected cells will be 0.
  • Click and drag over rows or columns from left to right or right to left to select deselect rows or columns
  • Click and drag over cells. Upper-left to lower-left corner to deselect cells. Lower-left to upper-left to select
  • SOF’s is a useful starting point for estimating energy savings for some, but not all, types of solar energy systems. Incident energy is not the same as useful delivered energy, and the surface orientation leading to maximum output of a solar energy system may be quite different from the orientation leading to maximum incident energy.
