[RE-wrenches] Spacing between solar arrays

[William Miller]

Joel:

We have a spreadsheet on our web site that calculates inter-row spacing for 
south facing rows on flat or angled 
surfaces:  http://millersolar.com/resources/resources.html

You have added a new twist that has us momentarily stumped -- non-south 
facing rows.  I am working on a solution and I will add it to the 
spreadsheet as soon as I figure it out.

There is a manufacturer that had a super excel spreadsheet to calculate 
inter-row shading, complete with nifty graphics, but I forget now 
where-in-the-web it is.  Anyone else remember this one?

William Miller

PS:  I have had a lot of comments from around the world of those using our 
design tools and even a few that added some ideas.  Our thanks to all who 
have helped and commented.
