pvfactors.geometry.timeseries.TsShadeCollection

class pvfactors.geometry.timeseries.TsShadeCollection(list_ts_surfaces, shaded)

Collection of timeseries surfaces that are all either shaded or illuminated. This will be used by both ground and PV row geometries.

__init__(list_ts_surfaces, shaded)

Initialize using list of surfaces and shading status

Parameters

• list_ts_surfaces (list of TsSurface) – List of timeseries surfaces in collection

• shaded (bool) – Shading status of the collection

Methods

__init__(list_ts_surfaces, shaded)	Initialize using list of surfaces and shading status
at(idx)	Generate a ponctual shade collection for the desired index.
get_param_weighted(param)	Get timeseries parameter for the collection, after weighting by surface length.
get_param_ww(param)	Get timeseries parameter from the collection with weight, i.e. after multiplying by the surface lengths.
update_params(new_dict)	Update timeseries surface parameters of the segment.

Attributes

length	Total length of the collection
list_ts_surfaces	List of timeseries surfaces in collection
n_ts_surfaces	Number of timeseries surfaces in the collection
