HI Erika,
The output of get_total_irradiance would be POA irradiance (not just direct irradiance) if the albedo was set to a realistic value. This function calculates the sum of the three components of POA (direct, diffuse, and ground reflected) Why are you setting albedo to equal zero? Doing this means that what you are calling perez_direct is actually POA direct + POA diffuse.
