Calculates heating rates from the irradiance_field.

The method assumes that the heating rates depend only on the vertical derivation of the net flux. The net flux is the sum of the irradiance_field in upward direction and the irradiance_field in downward direction Gravity and mass specific heat capacity are assumed to be varying with pressure (altitude), latitude and longitude
