Toolkit for working with RADIANCE for the ray-trace modeling of Bifacial Photovoltaics
Allow multiple scene objects to be tracked at the same time by the RadianceObj. This is accomplished by running makeScene multiple times, each one appends a new SceneObj to RadianceObj.scenes...
At the moment addPiles is a function in the SceneObj. It works for fixed-tilt systems. But a top-level function in RadianceObj is needed to loop through entries in TrackerDict to...
instead of copying some of the keys of sceneDict into a sceneDict2 and passing that to _makeSceneNxR, this updates the appropriate keys, and makes sure that _makeSceneNxR is working from...
On the dev branch, refactor `NSRDBWeatherData` function to be a more general `readWeatherData`. This splits the existing `readWeatherFile` function into two parts - the first half for reading different weather...
Passing a sceneDict into makeScene1axis that includes 'originx' or 'originy' doesn't get passed into the _makeSceneNxR subroutine. > sceneDict = {'originx':0.05, 'originy':0.05, 'pitch':pitch,'hub_height':hub_height, 'nMods': nMods, 'nRows': nRows} demo.makeScene1axis(module=mymodule,sceneDict=sceneDict) demo.trackerdict['2021-11-06_1100']['scene'].sceneDict: >...
 Only saves the x y z coords and material info for the 2nd element measured. Desirable behaviour to have such data for both sides.
c:\users\sayala\documents\github\bifacial_radiance\bifacial_radiance\performance.py:70: FutureWarning: Calling float on a single element Series is deprecated and will raise a TypeError in the future. Use float(ser.iloc[0]) instead Adjust=float(CECMod.Adjust)
What do I have to change in this piece of code to be able to use my own epw weather files? 
cumulative results are not power W/m2 front nad back, they are technically probably Insolation Wh/m2
