Modeling of Daily Global Solar Irradiation in Timisoara by Using a Fuzzy Approach
This paper proposes a new simple model to forecast daily global solar irradiation one day ahead using the Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy methods. The model is based on solar radiation data measured in Timisoara, Romania.

KPV: A clear-sky index for photovoltaics
Abstract The rapidly growing installed base of distributed solar photovoltaic (PV) systems is causing increased interest in forecasting their power output. A key step towards this is accurately estimating the output from a PV system based on the known output from a nearby PV system.

A Semi-Analytical Model for Separating Diffuse and Direct Solar Radiation Components
The knowledge of the solar irradiation components is required by most solar applications. When only the global horizontal irradiance is measured, this one is typically broken down into its fundamental components, beam and diffuse, by applying an ...

A Change of Yearly Atmospheric Clearness Index in Korea [PDF]
Since the atmospheric clearness index is main factor for evaluating atmosphere environment, it is necessary to estimate its characteristics all over the major cities in Korea. We have begun collecting clearness index data since 1982 at 16 different cities and considerable effort has been made for constructing a standard value from measured data at each

Some Psychometric Properties of the Brazilian CDC Clear Communication Index
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Clear Communication Index (CCI) was cross-culturally adapted to Brazilian Portuguese (BR). It was necessary to analyze the reliability and validity of the BR-CDC-CCI for its use in Brazil. This study aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the instrument in its Brazilian version.

Statistical analysis of the solar diffuse fraction radiation using regression analysis of longitudin
In this study, the validity of the estimation of a single regression equation for the diffuse frac-tion across 22 stations in India using the two parameters: the clearness index and the sunshine ratio is tested.
