<p>Saikat Das,</p>
<p> There are two ways that you can do this. If you want to set the
slope and azimuth of a surface (or axis) and have it remain fixed
throughout the simulation or have the surface track the sun in a
prescribed manner then you can use Type15 as Jeff mentioned in his
email. <br>
</p>
<p> If, however, you want to create a different tracking scheme or
if your surface's slope and azimuth follow some other pattern then
you can use Type15 to get the solar radiation on a horizontal
surface and use Type9 to read a data file containing slope and
azimuth. The results of Type9 and Type15 can then be passed to
Type16 for processing. I saw this technique used in a project some
years ago that was looking at the energy use of a large cruise
ship, which was treated as a building whose walls and windows
changed azimuth according to the ship's direction.</p>
<p>kind regards,</p>
<p> David</p>
