Produktbeschreibung

Solar radiation data is important for a wide range of applications. There are two ways to obtaining solar radiation data at ground level: by measurement and by modelling. The book will facilitate the calculation of solar radiation required by engineers, designers and scientists and, as a result, will increase the access to needed solar radiation data. This is the first book in the field including a CD-ROM with computer programs, written on the basis of the selected models.
