Question:

1. Find the length of shading device of opening time and date 1:00 pm, July 15 th, height of opening
2 m wall azimuth 155 degree.

Solution:

Given,
Location: Sainbu
Time: 1:00 pm
Date: 15th July
Window height= 2m

Now,
Solar Altitude: 79.97 DEGREE
Solar Azimuth: 125.76 DEGREE
Wall Azimuth (w): 155 degree

Then,
Horizontal shadow angle= wall azimuth- solar azimuth
= 155- 125.76
= 29.24

Tan (T) = tan (r) * sec (d)

= tan 79.97 * sec 29.24
= 6.479

Tan (T) = p/b

Tan (T) = 2/b
6.479 = 2/ b

Therefore, b= 0.308 m
= 1.01 ft.

Hence, the length of shading device for opening is 0.308 m or 1.01 ft.
