Abstract

More than 55,000 data of hourly solar radiation on a horizontal surface and on vertical surfaces exposed to the south, west, north and east, measured at Arcavacata di Rende (CS), were compared with hourly radiation data calculated by various calculation models.Erbs, Reindl et al. and Skartveit et al. correlations for the split of hourly global radiation in the diffuse and beam components were used together with the isotropic sky model and three anisotropic sky models.The agreement between experimental and calculated data is generally good.
