sunpeek.components.physical.MountingFixed#

class sunpeek.components.physical.MountingFixed(surface_tilt=None, surface_azimuth=None, name=None, plant=None, **kwargs)#

Bases: Mounting

Mounting class for fixed (non-tracking) solar collector installations.

For fixed mounting, surface_tilt and surface_azimuth are constant scalar values.

Parameters:
  • surface_tilt (pint.Quantity) – Tilt angle of the collector surface from horizontal (0-90 degrees).

  • surface_azimuth (pint.Quantity) – Azimuth angle of the collector surface. North=0, East=90, South=180, West=270.

Methods

__init__([surface_tilt, surface_azimuth, ...])

A simple constructor that allows initialization from kwargs.

add_component_attr(name[, unit, minimum, ...])

all_subclasses([c])

define_component_attrs()

get_component_attribute(name)

get_default_unit(name)

Return default unit of a class attribute defined as ComponentParam.

get_raw_sensor(str_map[, raise_if_not_found])

get_real_slots()

Get component's slot names for (possibly or always) real (not virtual) sensors

has_virtual_slot_named(slot_name)

Assert component has a (possibly or always) virtual sensor slot named slot_name.

is_attrib_missing(attrib_name)

Return True if component attribute is None or not a ComponentParam holding a Quantity.

is_real_sensor_missing(slot_name, check_mode)

Like is_sensor_missing, but additionally checks if sensor in named slot is real (not virtual).

is_sensor_missing(slot_name, check_mode)

Return True if component slot has no sensor mapped or sensor is not ready for calculations.

map_sensor(sensor, slot_name)

Maps sensor to slot_name of given component, including some sanity checks.

map_vsensor(slot_name, feedback)

Create virtual Sensor and map it to component.slot_name, or map None if it cannot be calculated.

register_callback(callback_type, func)

set_component_attribute(name, value, array_type)

set_sensors(**kwargs)

Maps one or multiple sensors (by calling map_sensor()) and handles configuring virtual sensors.

update_sensors(is_remove)

classmethod get_default_unit(name)#

Return default unit of a class attribute defined as ComponentParam.

Return type:

str

classmethod get_real_slots()#

Get component’s slot names for (possibly or always) real (not virtual) sensors

has_virtual_slot_named(slot_name)#

Assert component has a (possibly or always) virtual sensor slot named slot_name.

is_attrib_missing(attrib_name)#

Return True if component attribute is None or not a ComponentParam holding a Quantity.

Return type:

bool

is_real_sensor_missing(slot_name, check_mode)#

Like is_sensor_missing, but additionally checks if sensor in named slot is real (not virtual).

Return type:

bool

is_sensor_missing(slot_name, check_mode)#

Return True if component slot has no sensor mapped or sensor is not ready for calculations.

Return type:

bool

map_sensor(sensor, slot_name)#

Maps sensor to slot_name of given component, including some sanity checks.

map_vsensor(slot_name, feedback)#

Create virtual Sensor and map it to component.slot_name, or map None if it cannot be calculated.

Parameters:
  • slot_name (str, slot / channel name of the component self to which the virtual sensor will be mapped.)

  • feedback (CoreMethodFeedback, problems reported at config time, prior to vsensor calculation.)

set_sensors(**kwargs)#

Maps one or multiple sensors (by calling map_sensor()) and handles configuring virtual sensors.
