Opis

This book covers the fundamental concepts of solar radiation and its journey from the sun to the Earth, including topics such as terrestrial coordinates, the movement of the sun, and the various components of solar radiation, among others. Solar irradiation depends on several factors, including sunshine, temperature, geographical location, time of day, and the nature of present clouds. Numerous research efforts have been conducted to estimate ground-level solar irradiation, which is essential for sizing solar installations, predicting solar radiation, and assessing solar potential. It is also crucial to consider shading as a challenge when installing solar thermal systems for heating or photovoltaic systems for electricity production, which requires precise measurements of various irradiation parameters using suitable instruments and equipment.
