Tabulated IAM profile

A measured angular-response table given in the request

Unit ° / factor

What it is

A measured angular-response table given directly in the request: a list of incidence angles in degrees and, for each, the accepted fraction between 0 and 1. It is used by the tabulated method.

Typical values and how to get it

A laboratory measurement per IEC 61853-2 with at least two points, ending at 90° with 0. If not given: no table: the tabulated IAM option has no curve to read.
