[Bldg-sim] Direct/Diffuse Radiation Model

[mark dewsbury]

Dear All,

 

Associate Professor John Bolland of Uni South Australia has been developing
mathematical models in this area for some years. I have used them in my
research with success. He has been publishing his research through
Mathematics, Physics and Solar energy society channels

Subject: [Bldg-sim] Direct/Diffuse Radiation Model

 

Dear colleagues,

 

I am searching for a comparative study of models that derive direct and
diffuse solar radiation components from total solar radiation. I have been
using the Reindl model for many years and I am reasonable happy with it.
But,  I'd like to get a feeling what other models are available and how they
compare to Reindl. Any pointers would be appreciated. 

 

Thanks a lot,

 

Christoph
