Study of the climatology of global solar radiation is considered very useful for assessing the potential efficiency of systems designed for solar energy utilization. This paper explores some aspects of solar radiation climatology in Iraq. Analysis of the monthly averages global solar radiation and the general atmospheric transparency for the period 1971–1985 for three different climatological zones (Mosul, Baghdad, Nasiriyah) are discussed. The frequency distribution of daily clearness index for each station is determined using histograms of frequencies. The percentage number of days with solar radiation and sunshine duration values below a certain value is analyzed and discussed. The period of successive days having radiation less than 5 MJ/m2 · day−1 and 10 MJ/m2 · day−1 is examined and presented graphically. 相似文献

Experimental and theoretical investigation of global and diffuse solar radiation in the United Arab Emirates 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In the present study, the global, direct and diffuse components of solar radiation as well as temperature, relative humidity and wind speed have been continuously monitored and analysed on an hourly, daily and monthly basis. The monthly average daily total solar radiation varies from 2700 W h/m2 in December to 8000 W h/m2 in June with an average clearness index of 0.65. Experimental data are compared to the predictions of different theoretical models as functions of declination and hour angles. Correlations are obtained describing the variation of hourly, daily and monthly averages of total and diffuse solar radiation using polynomial expressions. Empirical correlations describing the dependence of the daily average diffuse to total radiation ratio on the clearness index are also obtained. Data for the daily diffuse to total radiation ratio are compared to correlations obtained by other investigators. The comparison shows a reasonable agreement with some scatter due to the seasonal dependence of the correlation. Comparison of calculations with experimental measurements under clear sky conditions show excellent agreement with a maximum error of 8%. 相似文献

Geographical, seasonal, and diurnal variations of global solar radiation in Thailand are surveyed. Seasonal effects are shown by separate studies for eight 1.5 month periods of the year defined by standard solar declination values. Detailed maps are given of the geographical distribution of solar radiation prepared from data on cloudiness at 44 stations, duration of sunshine at 18 stations, and linear regressions relating radiation to sunshine at Chiang Mai and Bangkok. The highest mean values are above 19.5 MJ m−2 d−1 and are widespread in spring. The lowest values are below 15.0 MJ m−2 d−1 in restricted localities with heavy rainfall in autumn.Rough estimates of diffuse solar radiation and atmospheric turbidity are made from the radiation-sunshine regression parameters. Diffuse radiation averages 8.4 MJ m−2 d−1. Turbidity at Chiang Mai is high in spring and low in summer and autumn; at Bangkok it is high throughout the year.The diurnal variation of global solar radiation determined from hourly measurements at Chiang Mai and Bangkok is analysed. The mean midday radiation fluxes range from 0.80 kW m−2 in spring to 0.60 kW m−2 in autumn. On the average the radiation received in the afternoon is slightly less than that received in the morning. 相似文献

This work focuses on the variability of the global solar radiation over the area of Maceió (9°40′S, 35°42′W, 127 m), located in Northeastern State of Alagoas, Brazil, during the1997–1999 period. Solar radiation variability was evaluated on 5 min, hourly, daily, monthly and seasonal scales. The results showed that the maximum values of the hourly global solar irradiation, , in the dry (September–February) and rainy (March–August) seasons were 3.18 and 2.50 MJ m−2, respectively. The peaks of the hourly average, , for both periods were 2.79 MJ m−2 and the daily average of the global solar irradiation, , was 19.89 MJ m−2. The daily clearness index, , was found to be 0.53 (rainy period) and 0.59 (dry period). In clear, partially cloudy (the most frequent) and overcast days, the daily averages of global solar irradiation were 25.20, 19.00 and 8.00 MJ m−2, respectively. On an annual scale the global solar irradiation changed from 15.00 MJ m−2 by August to 24.04 MJ m−2 by November. 相似文献

Promoting applications of hybrid (wind+photovoltaic+diesel+battery) power systems in hot regions 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Depleting oil and gas reserves, combined with growing concerns of atmospheric pollution/degradation, have made the search for energy from renewable sources of energy, such as solar and wind, inevitable. Literature indicates that commercial/residential buildings in Saudi Arabia consume an estimated 10–40% of the total electric energy generated. In the present study, hourly mean wind-speed and solar radiation data for the period 1986–1997 recorded at the solar radiation and meteorological monitoring station, Dhahran (26°32′ N, 50°13′ E), Saudi Arabia, have been analyzed to investigate the potential of utilizing hybrid (wind+solar) energy conversion systems to meet the load requirements of a typical commercial building (with annual electrical energy demand of 620 000 kWh). The monthly average wind speeds for Dhahran range from 4.1 to 6.4 m/s. The monthly average daily values of solar radiation for Dhahran range from 3.6 kWh/m2 to 7.96 kWh/m2. The hybrid systems considered in the present analysis consist of different combinations of commercial 10 kW wind energy conversion systems (WECS), photovoltaic (PV) panels supplemented with battery storage unit and diesel back-up. The study shows that with 30 10-kW WECS together with 150 m2 PV, and 3 days of battery storage, the diesel back-up system has to provide 17% of the load demand. However, in the absence of battery storage, about 38% of the load needs to be provided by the diesel system. 相似文献

The combined utilization of renewables such as solar and wind energy is becoming increasingly attractive and is being widely used for substitution of oil-produced energy, and eventually to reduce air pollution. In the present investigation, hourly wind-speed and solar radiation measurements made at the solar radiation and meteorological monitoring station, Dhahran (26°32′N, 50°13′E), Saudi Arabia, have been analyzed to study the impact of key parameters such as photovoltaic (PV) array area, number of wind machines, and battery storage capacity on the operation of hybrid (wind + solar + diesel) energy conversion systems, while satisfying a specific annual load of 41,500 kWh. The monthly average wind speeds for Dhahran range from 4.1 to 6.4 m/s. The monthly average daily values of solar radiation for Dhahran range from 3.6 to 7.96 kWh/m2. Parametric analysis indicates that with two 10 kW wind machines together with three days of battery storage and photovoltaic deployment of 30 m2, the diesel back-up system has to provide about 23% of the load demand. However, with elimination of battery storage, about 48% of the load needs to be provided by diesel system. 相似文献

The solar radiation climate of Athalassa, Cyprus, is reported upon in detail. The database utilized in this analysis consisted of daily global and diffuse radiation on a horizontal surface, and global radiation on tilted surfaces, together with the calculated daily values of horizontal beam radiation. In addition, the data reported here include maximum and minimum temperature, relative humidity and percentage of possible sunshine. Monthly average hourly global and diffuse radiation for the time interval 5 a.m.–7 p.m. are reported and analyzed. The annual means of the daily global, diffuse and beam solar radiation on a horizontal surface are about 17.26, 5.75 and 12.35 MJ m−2, respectively. The average monthly fraction of daily horizontal global radiation that is beam radiation varies from 0.61 in February to 0.77 in September. The average monthly clearness index varies from 0.636 in July to 0.491 in December, whereas the ratio of diffuse to global radiation varies from 0.494 in February to 0.257 in July. The solar radiation climate of the Cyprus environs has also been compared to those reported for two neighbouring countries. We conclude, based upon the above analysis, that Athalassa and its environs are characterized on average, by relatively high daily irradiation rates, both global and beam, and a relatively high percentage of clear days. 相似文献

This paper presents basic data for a five year period from 1986 to 1990 for global and diffuse solar radiation data at Al-Arish (31°04′N, 33°49′E). These data have been processed, analysed, presented, arranged in tables and graphs and discussed. Mean annual monthly and daily total, the diurnal variation and the frequency of daily totals of global solar radiation are computed and discussed. A correlation between the hourly values of the clearness and diffuse index were obtained and the recommended correlation equations were also given. The isopleths of hourly global radiation were also designed and discussed. The frequency distribution and the frequency of extended periods of low radiation income have been studied which are of particular interest in the field performance of solar energy systems. 相似文献

In the year 1998, the Arab League Educational, Cultural and Scientific Organization (ALESCO), Directorate of Science and Scientific Research, Tunis, had launched the “Solar Radiation Atlas for the Arab World”. This atlas contains three sets of maps (using Mercator projection) for monthly means, where each stands for one month. These are sunshine duration, global solar radiation and diffuse solar radiation. The atlas contains data for nearly 280 stations from 19 Arab states which cover latitudes from 0° (tropic) to 37°N and longitudes 19°E to nearly 60°E with different elevations from the sea level. It also contains useful tables of the monthly recorded means of the direct, diffuse and global solar radiation as well as the sunshine duration for 16 Arab states including 207 cities.The maximum recorded annual mean (10 years) of the global solar radiation in the Arab world was 6.7 kW h/m2/day in Nouakchott (latitude 20°56′N, longitude 17°02′E), Mauritania, and 6.6 kW h/m2/day in Tamenraset (latitude 36°11′N and longitude 5°31′E), Algeria, while the lowest recorded annual mean global solar radiation was 4.1 kW h/m2/day in Mosul (latitude 43°N and longitude 36°E), Iraq. Furthermore, the maximum recorded annual mean sunshine duration in the Arab world was 10.7 h in Aswan (latitude 23°58′N, longitude 32°47′E), Egypt, and the lowest was 7.5 h in Tunis (latitude 36°50′N, longitude 10°14′E), Tunisia. 相似文献

Monthly mean values of daily total solar radiation were obtained for the widest possible network acrossAustralia. Bureau of Meteorology sources yielded 11 stations with long term records of both measured daily total solar radiation and sunshine hour values. Monthly modified Angstrom equations were developed from these data and used to estimate radiation values for a further 90 stations in the Bureau of Meteorology network that had sunshine hour data. Measured daily total solar radiation data were obtained from a variety of sources mostly outside the Bureau of Meteorology network for an additional 33 stations. Finally, estimates of solar radiation from detailed cloud cover data were used for a further 12 stations, selected because they filled in significant gaps in coverage. These various sources yielded a total of 146 sets of monthly mean values of daily total solar radiation. For each month optimal surfaces, which were functions of position only, were fitted to this network of values using Laplacian smoothing splines with generalized cross validation. Residuals from the fitted surfaces at the data points were acceptably low. Fitted surfaces which included, in addition to position variables, a cloudiness index based on a transform of mean monthly precipitation further reduced these residuals. The latter fitted surfaces permit estimation of monthly mean values of total daily solar radiation at any point on the continent with a root mean square predictive error of no more than 1.25 MJ m−2 day−1 (5.2 per cent of the network mean) in summer and 0.74 MJ m−2 day−1 (5.5 per cent of the network mean) in winter. 相似文献

Depleting oil and gas reserves, combined with the growing concerns of global warming, have made it inevitable to seek alternative/renewable energy sources. The integration of renewables such as solar and wind energy is becoming increasingly attractive and is being used widely, for substitution of oil-produced energy, and eventually to minimize atmospheric degradation. The literature shows that commercial/residential buildings in Saudi Arabia consume an estimated 10–40% of the total electric energy generated. In the present investigation, hourly wind-speed and solar radiation measurements made at the solar radiation and meteorological monitoring station, Dhahran (26°32′ N, 50°13′ E), Saudi Arabia, have been analyzed to investigate the feasibility of using hybrid (wind+solar+diesel) energy conversion systems at Dhahran to meet the energy needs of twenty 2-bedroom houses. The monthly average wind speeds for Dhahran range from 4.1 to 6.4 m/s. The monthly average daily values of solar radiation for Dhahran range from 3.6 kWh/m2 to 7.96 kWh/m2. The performance of hybrid systems consisting of different rated power wind farms, photovoltaic (PV) areas, and storage capacities together with a diesel back-up are presented. The monthly average daily energy generated from the above hybrid system configuration has been presented. The deficit energy generated from the back-up diesel generator and the number of operational hours of the diesel system to meet a specific annual electrical energy demand of 702,358 kWh have also been presented. 相似文献

In this study, daily global radiation for Toledo (39°53′05″N, 4°02′58″W, Spain) were utilized to determine monthly-specific equations for estimating global solar radiation from sunshine hours and to obtain improved fits to monthly Angström–Prescott's coefficients.Models were compared using the root mean square error (RMSE), the mean bias error (MBE) and the t-statistic. According to our results, all the models fitted the data adequately and can be used to estimate the specific monthly global solar radiation.Average RMSE and MBE for comparison between observed and estimated global radiation were 1.260 and −0.002 MJ m−2 day−1, respectively. The t-statistic was used as the best indicator, this indicator depends on both, and is more effective for determining the model performance. The agreement between the estimated and the measured data were remarkable and the method was recommended for use in Toledo (Spain). 相似文献

Very simple models have been made to estimate the monthly and daily average total, diffuse and beam solar irradiation on a horizontal surface in Bahrain. The direct normal solar irradiation has also been measured and modeled using the rotating shadow band pyrometer. The monthly average estimation was found to be more accurate than the daily average, and modeling the direct solar irradiation is the most inaccurate followed by the diffuse; since these two are very susceptible to atmospheric pollution and weather conditions. The highest actually measured monthly average total for direct, diffuse and direct normal solar irradiation was found to be 585, 383, 343 and 716 W m−2, respectively, while the lowest actually measured monthly average values were 373, 242, 96 and 342 W m−2, respectively. The results of the total solar irradiation in four different sites in Bahrain were found to have similar values (the maximum hourly values ranged from 820 to 1000 W m−2 at mid-day in June) which is expected since the area of Bahrain is nearly 700 km2. 相似文献

Analysis of solar ultraviolet radiation (295–385 nm) and total global radiation (290–3000 nm), continuously recorded at a station in Makkah (21.5°N, 39.8°E) for 17 months in 1987–1988, has shown that the monthly average daily UV was 200 Wh m−2. The ratio of UV to total global radiation varied from a maximum of 0.043 to a minimum of 0.028. A drop of 25% below the average 0.036, detected in the summer months, is attributed to scattering and absorption by dust and low tropospheric ozone. Comparison with Dhahran and Kuwait has shown that the effect was localised. A study of diurnal variation and clear, midday hourly radiation and the ratio of UV to global radiation,
, also revealed an overall depletion in the summer months, despite the relative decrease in attenuation of Iv during cloudy days and at low solar altitudes. Multiple regressions of Hv and Iv on relevant variables with coefficients of determination exceeding 90% have been performed. Frequency distribution of daily UV is briefly discussed. 相似文献

Tables of monthly mean solar radiation parameters are computed from detailed cloud cover information. The parameters include direct and global daily total energy inputs to horizontal, inclined and “sun-tracking” surfaces. Comparison with measured global radiation at 12 stations reveals virtually no systematic error in the computation scheme, and an error of 2MJ m−2 day−1 in the worst case month of any station. 相似文献

The solar radiation climate of Beer Sheva, Israel, is reported upon in detail. The database utilized in this analysis consisted of global radiation on a horizontal surface, normal incidence beam radiation, and global radiation on a south-facing surface tilted at 40°. Monthly-average hourly and daily values are reported for each of these three types of measured radiations, together with the calculated monthly-average daily values for the components of the global radiation, viz. the horizontal beam and diffuse radiations. The monthly-average hourly and daily clearness index values have also been calculated and analyzed. Monthly-average daily frequency distributions of the clearness index values are reported for each month. The solar radiation climate of Beer Sheva has also been compared to those reported for a number of countries in this region. The annual-average daily global radiation incident on a horizontal surface is 18.91 MJ/m2 and that for normal incidence beam radiation is 21.17 MJ/m2. The annual-average daily fraction of the horizontal global radiation that is beam is 0.72. The annual-average daily value for the clearness index is 0.587 and the average frequency of clear days annually is 58.6%. We conclude, based upon the above analysis, that Beer Sheva and its environs are characterized by relatively high, average-daily irradiation rates, both global and beam, and a relatively high frequency of clear days. 相似文献

This paper presents actual measurements of direct solar radiation in Abu Dhabi (24.43°N, 54.45°E) with the existing meteorological conditions encountered during the measurement throughout the year. High resolution, real-time solar radiation and other meteorological data were collected and processed. Daily and monthly statistics of direct solar radiation were calculated from the one-minute average recorded by a Middleton Solar DN5-E Pyroheliometer. The highest daily and monthly mean solar radiation values were recorded as 730 and 493.5 W/m2, respectively. The highest one-minute average daily solar radiation was recorded as 937 W/m2. In addition to direct beam radiation, the daily average clearness indexes, surface temperature variations, wind speeds and relative humidity variations are discussed. When possible, direct beam radiation and some meteorological data are compared with corresponding data of the 22-year average of NASA's surface meteorology and solar-energy model. The measured data (direct beam radiation and meteorological) are in close agreement with the NASA SSE model with some discrepancy. 相似文献

Black Chrome samples have been exposed to concentrated solar radiation (350kW m−2–2.5 MW m−2) at elevated temperatures (250–500°C) over limited periods of time with the resultant observation that the coatings degrade less optically than equivalent coatings heated by IR radiation. The decreased degradation is a result of decreased oxidation of the Black Chrome coating under solar heating as compared to oven heating. This is proposed to be due to photo-desorption of gaseous oxygen bearing species from the surface of the film. 相似文献

Daily global insolation on a horizontal surface in Botswana is recorded continuously at several synoptic stations and at the University of Botswana's Physics Department. Over a number of years, daily total insolation on a tilted surface (β = −30°) was recorded at the Botswana Technology Centre. Hourly, and instantaneous direct normal, global, diffuse and UV-components are continuously recorded at the University of Botswana. All these measurements are done with standard EPLAB equipment.It is found out that the instantaneous direct normal radiation at Solar noon can be as high as 1150 W·m−2; and that at 30 min before sunset it can be above 600 W·m−2; and it can also be as high as 100 W·m−2 at sunset or sunrise moments (i.e. with half of the solar disk under the horizon).Daily direct normal solar radiation can exceed 45 MJ·m−2. Mean daily global radiation varies from 31 MJ·m−2 in December to 16 MJ·m−2 in June. Such big values of daily direct normal and global radiation are explained by low humidity and low turbidity.Cases of an anomalous phenomenon which lead to an abnormally big phase shift when direct normal radiation is increasing greatly after Solar noon are observed, and discussed. It is also found that when humidity is low and visibility is high, hourly Ig values recorded with a pyranometer can be less than Ibn (cosθz) + Id-values. This discrepancy could be quite common for regions where humidity and turbidity are low. The trend in the behaviour of the UV-component during the last five years is also analyzed and discussed. The conclusion is made that the ozone layer over Botswana is continuously being depleted. 相似文献

This paper presents the actual global solar radiation on a horizontal surface along with the prevailing meteorological conditions encountered during the measurement period from 1 January–31 December, for one complete year, in the Arabian Gulf Coast near the city of Dhahran. High resolution, real time solar radiation and meteorological data were collected, and processed. Hourly, daily, and monthly statistics of solar radiation was made from the one-minute averaged recorded values. The highest measured daily, and monthly mean solar radiation were found to be 351 and 328 W/m−2, respectively. The highest one-minute averaged solar radiation values up to 1183 W/m−2 were observed in the summer season, from May–September. The highest hourly solar radiation value was recorded as 1053 W/m−2 in the middle of June. Beside the global solar radiation measurements, the main observed meteorological parameters were temperature, pressure, wind speed, precipitation, and relative humidity. On the other hand, the estimation of daily and monthly mean global solar radiation was performed based upon two empirical formulas which relate the solar radiation to the sunshine duration, relative humidity, maximum temperature, the latitude of the monitoring location, sunset hour and declination angles. The agreement between the measured and estimated solar radiation values was found to be satisfactory. Nevertheless, the empirical formula under-estimates the solar radiation values during summer, and over-estimates during winter. 相似文献
