More solar-related attributes for SurfaceComponent?
Created by: gioagu
Hi!
As of now, there is only a boolean isSunExposed attribute to the SurfaceComponent class.
I think it would be useful to be able to store (for example):
direct_solar_irradiance: _Timeseries diffuse_solar_irradiance: _Timeseries global_solar_irradiance: _Timeseries insolation_time:_Timeseries (e.g. sun hours per day, per month, per year, etc.) shadowing_ratio: _Timeseries (for example due to adjacent buildings)
This could for example speed up simulations where these parameters are computed only once and then simply reused whenever necessary.
What do you think?
