True Solar Time by City 真太陽時

Clock time lies about the sun — by up to 16 minutes of equation of time plus up to 2 hours of longitude offset inside a single time zone. For each of 40 cities: the month-by-month correction, computed by the same kernel as the public API.

True solar time = clock + EoT + 4 min/degree of longitude offset from the zone meridian

Why two cities in the same time zone differ

A time zone spans 15° of longitude; the sun crosses it over a full hour. Shanghai (121.5°E) and Chengdu (104.1°E) share UTC+8, but solar noon in Chengdu runs about 70 minutes later than in Shanghai. For the BaZi hour pillar — which flips every two hours — that difference regularly decides which pillar a birth belongs to. The Pro workbench applies the correction per birth; the table above is the same kernel, precomputed.
