  1. Here Comes the Sun Environmental Tech III ARCH4225 Fall 2011 - Prof. Tango

  2. Earth / Sun Applet • Understand the principles governing the relationship between the earth’s rotation, orbit and angle to the sun http://www.mesoscale.iastate.edu/agron206/animations/01_EarthSun.html • Arctic circle 66.5 degrees north latitude • Tropic of Cancer = 23.5 degrees north • Tropic of Capricorn = 23.5 degrees south • Antarctic Circle = 66.5 degrees south latitude

  3. Winter Solstice Dec. 21 (Northern Hemisphere) Summer Solstice June. 21 (Northern Hemisphere)

  4. Changes in Latitude, Change in Altitude

  5. Sun Path Diagram For 32 degrees north latitude Solar Control and Shading Devices/Olgyay, pg 38

  6. Seven Rings for the months: June 21 - Summer Solstice July 21 / May 21 Aug. 21 / April 21 Sept. 21 / March 21- Equinox Oct. 21 / Feb. 21 Nov. 21 / Jan. 21 Dec. 21 - Winter Solstice Heliodon

  13. Solar Time • Solar time varies from clock time • Reasons: • Daylight Savings TimeTypically clocks are adjusted forward one hour near the start of spring (2nd Sunday in March/spring forward) and are adjusted backward in fall (1st Sunday in November/fall back) • Deviation in longitude • Earth’ s speed in it’s orbit around sun changes during the year 33 degrees North Latitude Feb. 11 (+14 minutes) Nov. 1 (- 16 minutes)

  14. World Time Zonesdirection of earth’s rotation ----- Standard time meridians are 15 degrees apart (one hour) or 4 minutes per degree -8 -7 -6 -5 hours GMT +2 +3 +4 hours U S A
