Solar radiation information for energy technologists
Main Article Content
Abstract
Some considerations of the adequate production of solar radiation information useful for solar energy planners and designers are shown here. Techniques for estimation of solar radiation on horizontal and inclined surfaces are discussed and methods of application for developing countries in particular, are illustrated. The results shown were obtained from measurements at the Central Observatory of Atmospheric Radiation in Mexico City.
