Path: Thermal/ThermalAnalysis
% Used by fmins from SolarPanelThermal to compute panel temperatures. This returns a cost for the deviations of the front/back solar panel temperature equations from zero. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form: [tF, tB] = SolarPanelThermal( d ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Inputs ------ x (2,1) [tF;tB] Front and back temperatures d (1,1) Data structure .alpha (1,1) Absorptivity .epsF (1,1) Front emissivity .epsB (1,1) Back emissivity .etaP (1,1) Fraction of flux to power .k (1,1) Front/back conductivity .s (1,1) Solar flux ------- Outputs ------- y (1,1) Cost --------------------------------------------------------------------------
