Overcast diffuse flat stow: diffuse threshold · case 05
At exactly the diffuse threshold the rows keep tracking.
Case contract
ghi <= 0 returns [0.0, night]. Diffuse fraction df = dhi*100/ghi percent (may exceed 100 with sensor noise). df >= thresh_pct: [0.0, 'diffuse']. If blend > 0 and df > thresh_pct - blend the angle is ideal*(thresh_pct - df)/blend ('blend'). Otherwise [ideal, 'track']. Angles rounded to 3.
Why this case matters
Single-axis and dual-axis solar trackers turn a sun direction into actuator commands; a sign, frame or limit mistake points a whole plant away from the sun or into a mechanical stop.
One recorded failure
Sample boundary fixtureThis sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
| Boundary fixture | Actual | Expected | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| boundary: diffuse fraction at threshold | [0.0, "blend"] | [0.0, "diffuse"] | Failed |
