Learning Objective and Outcome sheet
Topic Solar radiation
Learning Objectives
Losses of solar radiation in the atmosphere
Types of available solar radiation on the earth surface
Measurement of different types of radiation on earth surface
Estimation of total radiation falling on any surface
Learning Outcome
Extinction coefficient of earth surface and air mass.
Global, beam, diffuse, and reflected radiation
Pyranometer, Pyrheliometer, Sunshine recorder
Tilt factors for beam, diffuse and reflected radiaon
Problem/Assignment
Learning Resources
Summary
This lecture enables learner to understand the losses occurred in the
atmosphere and the total radiation available on any surface on the
earth. Different instruments can be deployed for the measurement
of the solar radiation is discussed. The importance of determining
the position of the sun in the sky is discussed.
