twoaxistracking.shading.horizon_elevation_angle(azimuth, slope_azimuth, slope_tilt)#

Calculate horizon elevation angle caused by a sloped field.

Parameters
  • azimuth (array-like) – Azimuth angle for which the horizon elevation angle is to be calculated [degrees]

  • slope_azimuth (float) – Direction of normal to slope on horizontal [degrees]

  • slope_tilt (float) – Tilt of slope relative to horizontal [degrees]

Returns

horizon_elevation_angle – Horizon elevation angle [degrees]

Return type

float
