SolarUtils is set of Python wrappers around the publicly available NREL SOLPOS and SPECTRL2 C-language computer programs that calculate solar position and spectral decomposition. Please read the NREL disclaimer and license. Usage of this software implies acceptance of the terms.
Installation
Use pip to install SolarUtils from the PyPI:
pip install SolarUtils
You can also download a source distribution from PyPI or clone the repository and use Python distutils:
python setup.py install
Requirements
SolarUtils has no requirements for usage however for installation, testing and to build the documentaiton you will need the following pacakges:
NumPy
PyTest
Sphinx
Usage
See SOLPOS Documentation and SPECTRL2 Documentation for more detail.
Examples
>>> from solar_utils import * >>> import pandas as pd >>> location = [35.56836, -119.2022, -8.0] >>> datetime = [2013, 6, 5, 12, 31, 0] >>> weather = [1015.62055, 40.0] >>> (angles, airmass) = solposAM(location, datetime, weather) >>> zenith, azimuth = angles >>> zenith 15.074043273925781 >>> azimuth 213.29042053222656] >>> am, amp = airmass >>> am 1.0352272987365723 >>> amp 1.0379053354263306]>>> units = 1 >>> location = [33.65, -84.43, -5.0] >>> datetime = [1999, 7, 22, 9, 45, 37] >>> weather = [1006.0, 27.0] >>> orientation = [33.65, 135.0] >>> atmospheric_conditions = [1.14, 0.65, -1.0, 0.2, 1.36] >>> albedo = [0.3, 0.7, 0.8, 1.3, 2.5, 4.0] + ([0.2] * 6) >>> specdif, specdir, specetr, specglo, specx = spectrl2( ... units, location, datetime, weather, orientation, ... atmospheric_conditions, albedo ... ) >>> spec = pd.DataFrame( ... {'DIF': specdif, 'DIR': specdir, 'ETR': specetr, 'GLO': specglo}, ... index=specx ... ) >>> f = spec.plot() >>> f.set_title('Solar Spectrum Example') >>> f.set_xlabel('Wavelength, $\lambda [\mu m]$') >>> f.set_ylabel('Spectral Irradiance, $I_{\lambda} [W/m^2/\mu m]$') >>> f.grid(True) >>> f.figure.show()
