Comparative study of two models to estimate solar radiation on an inclined surface
Main Article Content
Abstract
Our work is focused on the study of the solar radiation received on three inclined surface: 32°, 60° and 90° facing south. So, we proposed two theoretical models: Brichambaut and Liu Jordan models. Brichambaut model takes into account two input parameters (local time, day number), Liu & Jordan takes into account the measures of the solar irradiance (diffuse and global radiations received on horizontal plane). We tested a day 10-02-2011. We noted that the Brichambaut model gives best results, the maximum relative errors are equal to: -0.43 %, -0.60 %, 0.76 % respectively for the angles 32°, 60°, 90°. While for the Liu & Jordan model we obtained the following errors: 1.55 %, 1.56 %, and 3.92 %.
