根据坡面日出日没时角配置关系及其变化规律可得到在全球坡面可照时间的具体计算公式,它们是太阳赤纬、坡度、坡向和纬度的函数。根据各种情况下坡面可照时间对坡度或坡向的偏微分可以证明,全球的坡面可照时间总是随坡度的增加而减少或保持不变,而全球坡面的可照时间随坡向的增加则是或增加、或减少、或不变,并在一定条件下存在使坡面可照时间有极大值和极小值的坡向,这些坡向是纬度、太阳赤纬和坡度的函数。
The insolation-duration on global slope surface can be calculated by the sunrise and sunset hour angle on the slope. According to laws of the match relations of sunrise and sunset hour angle on slope surface, there are four formulae with different forms for calculating the insolation-duration on global slope surface. These formulae are as follows:Ts=2Eω0 Ts=2 Eωx Ts=E(ω0+ωx-|ωm| Ts=E(2w0+2wx-2π) Where Ts is insolation-duration on slope, E is a constant 3.82 (hour/radian), which is the conversion factor from radian to hour. to0 is the sunrise and sunset hour angle on horizontal surface, cox is the sunrise and sunset hour angle on non- horizontal surface, tom is a parameter of the slope. These formulae can be treated as function of the latitude, slope angle, azimuth and the declination. The influence of slope and azimuth on insolationduration on slope surface is considerable complicated. In different latitude and declination, the influence of slope and azimuth on insolation-duration is different too. According to the partial derivative of insolation-duration to the slope, through fair and foul, it is true that the insolation-duration on slope increases or the insolation-duration holds the line with slope increasing. So, the insolation-duration on slope is always longer than or equal to that value on horizontal surface . This law can be extended to any period of time such as one month or one season. According to the partial derivative of insolation-duration to azimuth, it is quite complicated that.the insolation-du- ration on slope varies with azimuth. Beyond the two critical azimuths, the insolation-duration on slope varying with azimuth is flat or does not vary with azimuth. When the azimuth is between the two critical azimuths, there are three different eases for the insolation-duration on slope varying with azimuth. For given declination and slope, there are two critical latitudes that are function of the slope and declination. Between the two critical azi- muths and between the two c
