class RadiationPanel;Description
A radiation panel calculates the radiation absorbed by the surface of the panel and the affects of it’s shielding. The radiation is calculated from the direction of the sun and any planetary albedo reflection. The external exposure calculation is dependent on the angle the panel is to the sources, and its projected area. The internal exposure calculation is dependent, on the shielding provided by the panel.
