NEW ESTIMATES OF MEAN DAILY DIFFUSE SOLAR RADIATION IN THAILAND

 

R.H.B. EXELL and PINIT SANTIBUPPAKUL

ABSTRACT: Values of the mean daily diffuse solar radiation at four locations in Thailand calculated season by season from a simulation model for solar radiation in SE Asia have been compared with rough estimates obtained from correlations between global solar radiation and duration of sunshine. The simulation model gives slightly higher values. which range from 6.6 to 11.2 MJ/m2 per day.
