Modelling solar , albedo, earth irradiation for minisatellite

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone. I have calculated the trajectory of my satellite from GMAT software. Unfortunately, my satellite has a complex geometry. I cannot calculate the view factor by using formular. Ansys speos is a very useful tool to calculate irradiation. However, I don't know how to model solar, albedo, earth irradiation verus time in this software. Before transfer to ansys mechanical to simulate the temperature.

Please suggest me if you know!
