It locates the heliostats, in order to obtain highest efficiency. Click here to see how does it work.
It computes the position of the heliostat. It returns the position in radiansHG:Global position of the heliostat(latitude,longitude)
TP: Position of the tower(azimuth, altitude). Origin of the azimuth is south and all units are in radians
time: Time of the computed instance. It's a datetime object
It computes the normal of the heliostat. It returns the position in radians
HG:Global position of the heliostat(latitude,longitude)
TP: Position of the tower(azimuth, altitude). Origin of the azimuth is south and all units are in radians
