[docs]def q_rad(emissivity, T, T2=0): r'''Returns the radiant heat flux of a surface, optionally including assuming radiant heat transfer back to the surface. .. math:: q = \epsilon \sigma (T_1^4 - T_2^4) Parameters ---------- emissivity : float Fraction of black-body radiation which is emitted, [-] T : float Temperature of the surface, [K] T2 : float, optional Temperature of the surrounding material of the surface [K] Returns ------- q : float Heat exchange [W/m^2] Notes ----- Emissivity must be less than 1.

[docs]def grey_transmittance(extinction_coefficient, molar_density, length, base=e): r'''Calculates the transmittance of a grey body, given the extinction coefficient of the material, its molar density, and the path length of the radiation. .. math:: \tau = base^{(-\epsilon \cdot l\cdot \rho_m )} Parameters ---------- extinction_coefficient : float The extinction coefficient of the material the radiation is passing at the modeled frequency, [m^2/mol] molar_density : float The molar density of the material the radiation is passing through, [mol/m^3] length : float The length of the body the radiation is transmitted through, [m] base : float, optional The exponent used in calculations; `e` is more theoretically sound but 10 is often used as a base by chemists, [-] Returns ------- transmittance : float The fraction of spectral radiance which is transmitted through a grey body (can be liquid, gas, or even solid ex. in the case of glasses) [-] Notes ----- For extinction coefficients, see the HITRAN database. They are temperature and pressure dependent for each chemical and phase.

[docs]def solar_spectrum(model='SOLAR-ISS'): r'''Returns the solar spectrum of the sun according to the specified model. Only the 'SOLAR-ISS' model is supported. Parameters ---------- model : str, optional The model to use; 'SOLAR-ISS' is the only model available, [-] Returns ------- wavelengths : ndarray The wavelengths of the solar spectra, [m] SSI : ndarray The solar spectral irradiance of the sun, [W/(m^2*m)] uncertainties : ndarray The estimated absolute uncertainty of the measured spectral irradiance of the sun, [W/(m^2*m)] Notes ----- The power of the sun changes as the earth gets closer or further away. In [1]_, the UV and VIS data come from observations in 2008; the IR comes from measurements made from 2010-2016. There is a further 28 W/m^2 for the 3 micrometer to 160 micrometer range, not included in this model. All data was corrected to a standard distance of one astronomical unit from the Sun, as is the resultant spectrum. The variation of the spectrum as a function of distance from the sun should alter only the absolute magnitudes. [2]_ contains another dataset. 99.9% of the time this function takes is to read in the solar data from disk. This could be reduced by using pandas. Examples -------- >>> wavelengths, SSI, uncertainties = solar_spectrum() Calculate the minimum and maximum values of the wavelengths (0.5 nm/3000nm) and SSI: >>> min(wavelengths), max(wavelengths), min(SSI), max(SSI) (5e-10, 2.9999e-06, 1330.0, 2256817820.0) Integration - calculate the solar constant, in untis of W/m^2 hitting earth's atmosphere. >>> import numpy as np >>> np.trapz(SSI, wavelengths) 1344.802978 References ---------- ..
