Extracting Solar Altitude/Zenith Angles
Posted: Fri Nov 19, 2010 3:58 pm
Hi,
After setting the location in APLocate I'm hoping to extract the solar altitude (or zenith) angles from Suncast for every hour of every day of one year.
I think I can do this by running Solar Shading Calculations (31 separate times), saving the Table of Solar Altitudes and subsequently manipulating it in Excel. This will involve a fair amount of cutting and pasting in Excel.
Is there an easier way to get a simple text or Excel output document with one column of hourly solar altitude angles for one year?
Thanks!
