Boltzmann constant.
R= 696·106 m is the Sun radiuses

between the Sun and the earth
What is the average intensity per square meter of the Earth’s surface?
1- Latitude φ
latitude is used to state how far north or south you are, relative
to the equator.
•If you are on the equator your
latitude is zero.
•If you are near the north pole
or the south pole your latitude

The angle of tilted surface ‘β’ is angle between the surface and
the horizontal.
Incidence angle on a surface of tilt β and azimuth γ on the
latitude φ at a time when the declination is δ and the hour
angle is ω, is:
cos θ = sin δ ⋅ sin φ ⋅ cos β − sin δ ⋅ cos φ ⋅ sin β ⋅ cos γ + cos δ ⋅ cos φ ⋅ cos β ⋅ cos ω
+ cos δ ⋅ sin φ ⋅ sin β ⋅ cos γ ⋅ cos ω + cos δ ⋅ sin β ⋅ sin γ ⋅ sin ω

Conclusion
About 6.5% of the total energy is contained in the
ultraviolet region (λ < 0.38 μm);
another 47.9% is contained in the visible region (0.38 μm
< λ < 0.78 μm); and
45.6% is contained in the infrared region (λ > 0.78 μm).

Atmosphere Influence on Solar Radiation
30% is reflected.
17% is absorbed by the atmosphere.
53% reaches the earth surface:
31% direct radiation
22% diffuse radiation .

Atmosphere Influence on Solar Radiation
Reflected Radiation
– Solar rays reflected from
surrounding
– Albedo, ρg, is ground
reflectance of both beam and
diffuse radiation
– Only sloped surfaces receives
reflected radiation from the
surrounding
