sapm_effective_irradiance
(poa_direct, poa_diffuse, airmass_absolute, aoi, reference_irradiance=1000)¶ Use the
sapm_effective_irradiance()
function, the input parameters, andself.module_parameters
to calculate effective irradiance.- Parameters
poa_direct (numeric or tuple of numeric) – The direct irradiance incident upon the module. [W/m2]
poa_diffuse (numeric or tuple of numeric) – The diffuse irradiance incident on module. [W/m2]
airmass_absolute (numeric) – Absolute airmass. [unitless]
aoi (numeric or tuple of numeric) – Angle of incidence. [degrees]
- Returns
effective_irradiance (numeric or tuple of numeric) – The SAPM effective irradiance. [W/m2]
