Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Some longer definitions and conventions are being removed from parameter descriptions in #2311
Describe the solution you'd like
Migrate definitions and conventions over to the nomenclature page
See thread below for examples.
Additional context
Let's agree on some definitions here, then I'll add them to the glossary.
Note: some conventions (e.g. angle ranges or irradiance limits) might be function specific.

Original definitions from irradiance.py with some suggested modifications from me.
surface_tilt
Surface tilt angle, must be >=0° and <=180°. The surface tilt angle describes
the inclination of the PV panel and is defined as degrees from the horizontal
such that a surface facing up would have a surface tilt of 0°, and one facing
the horizon would be 90°. [°]
surface_azimuth
Surface azimuth angle, must be >=0° and <=360°. This angle describes the
horizontal orientation of the PV panel relative to a reference direction, and
the convention is defined as degrees east (clockwise) of north. For example,
North = 0°, South=180° East = 90°, West = 270°. [°]
solar_zenith
Apparent (refraction-corrected) zenith angle, must be ≥0° and ≤180°. The solar
zenith angle describes the position of the sun relative to the vertical and is
defined as the angle between the sun’s rays and a vector pointing straight up from
the observer. [°]
solar_azimuth
Solar azimuth angle, must be ≥0° and ≤360°. The solar azimuth angle describes
the sun’s position along the horizon and is defined as degrees east (clockwise)
of north. For example, North = 0°, East = 90°, South = 180°, West = 270°. [°]
Some of these would be new definitions, some of these exist in the glossary but need to be updated with more detail.
There are others. We can update this list...
