Question

Describe the various methods of solar radiation measurement.
​

Answer 1

Explanation:

A pyranometer is a type of actinometer used for measuring solar irradiance on a planar surface and it is designed to measure the

 solar radiation flux density (W/m2) from the hemisphere above within a wavelength range 0.3 μm to 3 μm.

Answer 2

Answer:

there are two important types of instrument to measure solar radiation :

Explanation:

pyrheliometer is used to measure direct beam radiation at normal incidence .

according to duffie and beckman, abbot silver disc pyrheliometer and angstrom compensation pyrheliometer are important primary standard instruments
