Solar Radiation on Inclined Surfaces [PDF]
CALCULATION of the probable intensity of solar radiation on a surface which is inclined to the horizontal and at any attitude or azimuth relative to the Sun's meridian is frequently necessary in solar engineering research. The usual practice has been to perform such a calculation by separating the direct component of insolation and the diffuse ...

PV system sizing using observed time series of solar radiation [PDF]
Sizing represents an important part of photovoltaic system design. This paper describes a sizing procedure based on the observed time series of solar radiation. Using a simple geometrical construction, the sizing curve is determined as a superposition of

ESTIMATION OF TOTAL SOLAR RADIATION INCIDENT ON AN INCLINED SURFACE OF A SOUTH-FACING GREENHOUSE ROOF [PDF]
Solar radiation is the driving force for the surface energy balance in buildings such as greenhouses. Greenhouses are generally tilted towards the sun in order to maximize the solar irradiance on the surfaces.

Impact of diffuse solar radiation on HAM simulation accuracy [PDF]
Advance in the numerical simulation models brings higher need for more accuracy outdoor boundary conditions - climate data sets. With influence of the urban heat islands, measured climate on the meadows, far from pawed surfaces creates uncertainty in the

Sensitivity of a distributed temperature-radiation index melt model based on AWS observations and surface energy balance fluxes, Hurd Peninsula glaciers, Livingston Island, Antarctica [PDF]
We use an automatic weather station and surface mass balance dataset spanning four melt seasons collected on Hurd Peninsula Glaciers, South Shetland Islands, to investigate the point surface energy balance, to determine the absolute and relative ...

Towards Optimal Aerosol Information for the Retrieval of Solar Surface Radiation Using Heliosat
High quality data of surface radiation is a prerequisite for climate monitoring (Earth radiation budget) and solar energy applications. A very common method to derive solar surface irradiance is the Heliosat method, a one channel approach for the ...
