add diffuse radiation calculation

Open aqreed opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

until now, the irradiance_on_plane function only calculates direct radiation. Diffuse radiation might account for as much as 15% of the total radiation on a clear-sky or 100% in a cloudy day.

It must be valid for altitudes ranging from 0 to 25km
