Solar Forecasts Based on the Clear Sky Index or the Clearness Index: Which Is Better?

open access: yesSolar, 2022
In the realm of solar forecasting, it is common to use a clear sky model output to deseasonalise the solar irradiance time series needed to build the forecasting models.

Instantaneous global horizontal irradiance and clearness index data with high temporal resolution for 1016 days [PDF]

open access: yesData in Brief, 2022
Global Horizontal Irradiance was measured using a thermopile-type pyranometer during more than three years using a sample time of two seconds, with the purpose of capturing fast transient events of irradiance which are notable in tropical regions as the ...

Effect of sky clearness index on transmission of evacuated (vacuum) glazing [PDF]

open access: yesRenewable Energy, 2017
Glazing transmittance variation with clearness index has higher influence than incident angle for soar energy application. This work presents variation of vacuum glazing transmittance with clearness index. Clearness index and transmittance was calculated from measured one year (2014) solar radiation and glazing transmittance data in Dublin, Ireland ...

ON THE RELATIONSHIP OF BEAM TRANSMITTANCE ON CLEARNESS INDEX FOR ATHENS, GREECE

open access: yesInternational Journal of Solar Energy, 1989
Proper design and performance prediction of solar energy systems requires accurate information on the availability of solar radiation. However, the complexity and cost of a reliable radiation measuring network dictates the need for developing alternatives that can replace and/or complement observations.

Spatio-Temporal Characteristics in the Clearness Index Derived from Global Solar Radiation Observations in Korea

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2016
The spatio-temporal characteristics of the clearness index (KT) were investigated using daily global solar irradiance measurements (290–2800 nm) for the period of 2000–2014 at 21 sites in Korea, a complex region in East Asia with a distinct monsoon ...

Machine learning models to predict diffuse solar radiation based on diffuse fraction and diffusion coefficient models for humid-subtropical climatic zone of India

open access: yesCleaner Engineering and Technology, 2021
In the present work, twelve machine learning (ML) models are developed for assessment of monthly average diffuse solar radiation (DSR) with solitary input forecaster as clearness index. Two categories of ML models were demarcated (i.e.

Evaluation of diffuse fraction and diffusion coefficient using statistical analysis

open access: yesApplied Water Science, 2020
In this study, eighty models are proposed in order to estimate the diffuse fraction and diffuse coefficient. For the proposed models, sunshine ratio and clearness index are considered as predictors.
