The average masking angle over the slant height of a row. |
|
The diffuse irradiance loss caused by row-to-row sky diffuse shading. |
|
Shaded fraction for trackers with a common angle on an east-west slope. |
|
Fraction of power lost to linear shade loss applicable to monolithic thin film modules like First Solar CdTe, where the shadow is perpendicular to cell scribe lines. |
