Review on mathematical models for the prediction of solar radiation

Global Solar Radiation (GSR) data is important for all solar energy based applications, mainly to forecast the output power of solar PV system in case of renewable energy integration in to the existing grid. The solar radiation components are measured using pyranometer, solarimeter, pyroheliometer a...

520 |a Global Solar Radiation (GSR) data is important for all solar energy based applications, mainly to forecast the output power of solar PV system in case of renewable energy integration in to the existing grid. The solar radiation components are measured using pyranometer, solarimeter, pyroheliometer and so on. It is not practically possible to install this radiation measuring instruments at all the locations due to the cost and difficulty in measurements. Hence the availability of solar radiation data is limited to few meteorological stations especially in the developing country like India. Therefore, it is necessary to develop mathematical models to predict the solar radiation to eliminate the costly pyranometer. In this paper, the review of mathematical models using trigonometric functions for the prediction of global solar radiation is presented. The mathematical models are applicable wherever the radiation data is unavailable. From the review results, it is concluded that mathematical model with both sine and cosine wave equation gives good prediction accuracy with correlation coefficient of 0.95
