TL;DR: In this article, an attempt to calculate optimum tilt angle of a BIPV panel surrounded by buildings of different heights which are located at different radial distances from panel by employing modified HDKR model was made.
36 citations
TL;DR: In this article, a modified HDKR model where influence of shadow is incorporated in the mathematical model was developed which is a modified version of HDKR/S model where four discrete rectangular buildings situated in four directions (North, South, East and West) around a BIPV thermal system are considered for creating adverse effect of shadow.

TL;DR: A simple method of estimating the average daily radiation for each calendar month on surfaces facing directly towards the equator has been presented by Liu and Jordan as discussed by the authors, verified with experimental measurements and extended to allow calculation of monthly average radiation on surfaces of a wide range of orientations.
Abstract: Several simplified design procedures for solar energy systems require monthly average meteorological data. Monthly average daily totals of the solar radiation incident on a horizontal surface are available. However, radiation data on tilted surfaces, required by the design procedures, are generally not available. A simple method of estimating the average daily radiation for each calendar month on surfaces facing directly towards the equator has been presented by Liu and Jordan [1]. This method is verified with experimental measurements and extended to allow calculation of monthly average radiation on surfaces of a wide range of orientations.
