[TRNSYS-users] Type 15 solar tracking mode



Dear all,

I'd like to compare the solar beam radiation collected by a surface considering different solar tracking systems (1axis N-S, 1 axis E-W, 2axes). I use Type 15 for weather data.
I've seen that there are different tracking modes :
- mode 1 : fixed surface
- mode 2 : surface rotates about a vertical axis
- mode 3 : surface rotates about a fixed axis
- mode 4 : the surface 2-axis tracks the sun

My question : Where do I have to define the position of the axis in mode 3 ?

Best regards,

Simon
