Translating the beam radiation onto the plane of the panels is a fairly straightforward matter of geometry. The factor Rb is the ratio of in plane beam to horizontal beam (Ib), and is given by: | Translating the beam radiation onto the plane of the panels is a fairly straightforward matter of geometry.
