Please refer to the ..\Trnsys16_1\Tess Models\Documentation\Green Building Library\Type551.pdf for some diagrams that explain the angle definitions. As for the source code, the angles are converted to radians so the limits that you are seeing are limitations on radians, not on degrees.
Kind regards,

Dear all,
following type 551 documentation I would set for the case depicted in the attached figure:
Array configuration: 2
Row slope: alpha + beta
Field slope: beta
But looking at the source code:
- Row slope seems to be considered only referring to the horizontal
- It is requested not to have (FieldSlope.GT.RowSlope), which I would get because for ConfigMode=2 fieldslope is calculated as (90-beta)
- Moreover It seems that I can´t have beta equal to 0, as it is requested not to have (FieldSlope.GT.1.5d0). What about a vertical wall?
Can you give me some suggestions?
Thanks,
Giovanni Nurzia
