Explanation:

Sun Position

Calculation of sun’s position in the sky for each location on the earth at any time of day. Azimuth, sunrise sunset noon, daylight and graphs of the solar path.

Sunrise and sunset are defined as the instant when the upper limb of the Sun’s disk is just touching the horizon, this corresponds to an altitude of -0.833° degrees for the Sun.

Twilight is the time after sunset characterized by a diffuse light (by extension the morning twilight, use term aurora, dawn or sunrise).

Civil twilight lapse of time between sunset and when the sun reaches the elevation height of -6°, in the sky are visible only a few stars and planets particularly bright.

Nautical twilight represents the time the Sun takes a pass from -6° to -12° below the horizon, in this period are distinguished horizon line and the main stars.

Astronomical twilight is the time interval between sunset and when the sun reaches 18° below the horizon, the sky is dark, is possible to distinguish the stars up to the sixth magnitude.

Noon in solar time occurs when the sun is at its highest point in the sky for the day, and it is either due south or due north of the observer depending on the latitude.

Azimuth indicates an angle between a point and a reference plane. Generally is the angular distance of a point from the true North (geographic north) not magnetic, I made this choice, because in this way you can see the sun’s position in the map, if you use a compass, you must add the magnetic declination for your location. There are some compass app for smartphones that automatically add the magnetic declination for your location.

The height, or Elevation , is the angular distance of the horizon a point on the celestial sphere, measured as positive if facing the Zenith, and negative if directed towards the Nadir.

Zenith , is the intersection perpendicular to the plane of the horizon passing through the observer with the visible celestial hemisphere and is the point above the head of the observer. The diametrically opposite point is called Nadir.

The knowledge of the position of the sun and the daylight hours, allow to know the energy radiated from the Sun (renewable) at the point on the Earth that we are examining.

The solar energy can be heat engines produced from solar panels or electrical produced by photovoltaic panels.
