TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present relationships permitting the determination on a horizontal surface of the instantaneous intensity of diffuse radiation on clear days, the long term average hourly and daily sums of diffuse radii, and the daily sum of diffuse radiata for various categories of days of differing degrees of cloudiness.

TL;DR: The flat-plate collectors have been used successfully for many years in the southern United States and elsewhere as water heaters, and potentially can be used for space heating, drying, refrigeration, power generation and similar purposes as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present relationships permitting the determination on a horizontal surface of the instantaneous intensity of diffuse radiation on clear days, the long term average hourly and daily sums of diffuse radii, and the daily sum of diffuse radiata for various categories of days of differing degrees of cloudiness.

TL;DR: In this article, a novel gas-liquid heat exchange system was proposed for converting existing structures to partial or complete solar heating, where either gaseous or liquid heat transfer fluids may be used.
