Empirical models for estimating global solar radiation: A review and case study

TL;DR: In this article, a chronologically collected and reviewed the extensive global solar radiation models available in the literature and to classify them into four categories, i.e., sunshine-based, cloudbased, temperature-based and other meteorological parameter-based models, based on the employed meteorological parameters as model input.

Correlations for estimation of daily global solar radiation with hours of bright sunshine in Turkey

Kadir Bakirci
- 01 Apr 2009 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, seven different empirical equations are employed to estimate the monthly average daily global solar radiation on a horizontal surface for provinces in different regions of Turkey, using only the relative duration of sunshine.

Estimation of monthly average daily global solar irradiation using artificial neural networks

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the possibility of developing a prediction model using artificial neural networks (ANN), which could be used to estimate monthly average daily global solar irradiation on a horizontal surface for locations in Uganda based on weather station data: sunshine duration, maximum temperature, cloud cover and location parameters.

Review and statistical analysis of different global solar radiation sunshine models

TL;DR: The main objective of this study is to evaluate different solar radiation models on global scale, which might be helpful in the selection of the most appropriate and accurate model based on the available sunshine data.

Modeling Solar Radiation at the Earth Surface

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe algorithms for estimating the amount of solar energy incident at ground level on horizontal and inclined surfaces as well as on sun tracking surfaces, which can be used for straightforward prediction of solar irradiance and irradiation on horizontal surface under clear sky conditions.

Global solar radiation estimation using sunshine duration in Spain

TL;DR: In this paper, several equations were employed to estimate global solar radiation from sunshine hours for 16 meteorological stations in Spain, using only the relative duration of sunshine, including the original Angstrom-Prescott linear regression and modified functions (quadratic, third degree, logarithmic and exponential functions).
