SOME CHARACTERISTICS OF THE EPPLEY PYRHELIOMETER
Monthly Weather Review, 1951 Abstract Tests were made of the effect of several variables on the performance of the Eppley pyrheliometer. The tests showed: (1) How the output increased with decreasing ambient temperature; (2) how output varied with angle of incidence of collimated radiation; (3) that output decreased about 5 percent when receiver was exposed in the vertical plane ...

Solar variability indications from Nimbus 7 satellite data [PDF]
The cavity pyrheliometer sensor of the Nimbus 7 Earth Radiation Experiment indicated low-level variability of the total solar irradiance. The variability appears to be inversely correlated with common solar activity indicators in an event sense.
