Solar Flux and Flux Density
q  Solar Luminosity (L)
     the constant flux of energy put out by the sun
                         L = 3.9 x 1026   W
q  Solar Flux Density (Sd)
     the amount of solar energy per unit area on a
sphere centered at the Sun with a distance d
                         Sd  = L / (4 p d2)   W/m2
