The minimum row spacing can be found using D= D ' ⋅ cos 180-Ψ , where Ψ . is the azimuth angle found using the NOAA Solar Position Calculator, found in Appendix 1. The minimum row spacing, D, was found to be 28.83” or 2.4’. The total width of the row was found by adding D and cosine of the tilt angle multiplied by the height of the panel. ................
