- Add detailed definitions for solar angles with range constraints - Clarify pvlib's east-of-north convention for azimuth angles - Add cross-references between related terms using :term: directive - Add coordinate system conventions for latitude/longitude - Enhance existing angle definitions with usage notes and examples This commit addresses issue pvlib#2448 by migrating angle definitions and conventions from parameter descriptions to the nomenclature page. (cherry picked from commit 16435c7)
- Created test_solar_angles.py to verify solar angle calculations - Tests zenith, azimuth, and elevation angles for different times of day - Uses New York City as example location on spring equinox - Verifies angles are within expected ranges and follow correct patterns (cherry picked from commit f202c5d)
…s/test_solarposition.py - Deleted the standalone test_solar_angles.py file. - Added a new test function, test_solar_angles_spring_equinox, to tests/test_solarposition.py. - The new test verifies solar angles for New York City on the spring equinox, ensuring angles are within expected ranges and follow correct patterns. (cherry picked from commit 9963629)
