An Overview of Different Methods of Estimating Solar Radiation Intensity

Correct information about solar radiation is the first and most important requirement in the practical designs of solar energy. Therefore, to determine the actual average energy received from the sun on each surface, accurate measurement of solar radiation over a long period of time should be used. One of the main and influential parameters in the design of solar power plants is the estimation of the intensity of the sun's radiation on the surface of the earth. Many factors and parameters, such as meteorological factors, affect the intensity of solar radiation received on the surface of the earth, and in this article, different methods of estimating the intensity of solar radiation are described.
