Photon Flux
By Dr. Gerard Joseph Lim
Learning Objectives & Guide
Flux Intensity:
Adjust the Photon Flux slider to change the density of incoming solar photons (gold particles).
Panel Tilt Angle:
Rotate the solar panel using the Tilt slider to observe how inclination changes its cross-section.
Effective Projected Area:
Note the visual gold vector showing the projected width of the panel orthogonal to incoming rays.
Flux Formula:
Witness the cos(θ) dependency (Φ = Φ₀ · cos(θ)) directly reflected in the ammeter and lightbulb glow!
