 Azimuthal position of the sun.
 
-Value 0: Azimuthal position of the sun is always south (180°).\\
-Value 1: Actual azimuthal position of the sun is calculated based of the current date and time within the simulation. 
-
-The following parameters are used as input for the solar position calculation: time_utc_init, day_of_year_init, latitude, longitude.
+If '''sun_in_south''' = .True., the azimuthal position of the sun is always in south direction (180°).\\
+If '''sun_in_south''' = .False., the actual azimuthal position of the sun is calculated based of the respective parameter values within the simulation. The fixed solar azimuth angle only applies to the exposure model and does not affect other modules of Palm.

+The following parameters are used as input for the solar position calculation: time_utc_init, day_of_year_init, latitude & longitude.\\
+Independent of the setting of this parameter, the solar zenith angle (SZA) is not fixed and will always change dependent on date and time.
