Cloud transient characterization in different time steps
(American Institute of Physics Inc., 2017-06)
In this paper we evaluate the cloud transients by analyzing the dynamics of the direct fraction index kb for one year of solar radiation data in different time steps. We use instant 5-sec data integrated data and compare ...

Visual Resources for Learning Thermodynamics: A Neuroeducation Perspective
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023)
Thermodynamics is an engineering subject that is particularly difficult to teach and learn because it requires strong abstract theoretical concepts and extensive multidisciplinary knowledge. This manuscript introduces ...

Economical and environmental analysis of thermal and photovoltaic solar energy as source of heat for industrial processes
(American Institute of Physics Inc., 2017-06)
Thermal energy for industrial processes can be generated using thermal (ST) or photovoltaic (PV) solar energy. ST energy has traditionally been the most favorable option due to its cost and efficiency. Current costs ...

Analysis of the distribution of measured and synthetic DNI databases and its effect on the expected production of a parabolic trough plant
(Elsevier, 2014)
The generation of a Typical Meteorological Year (TMY) is a common practice in solar energy projects. Therefore it is desirable that the TMY provides not only a good estimate of the solar resource in the long term, but also ...

A normalized variability index of daily solar radiation
(American Institute of Physics Inc., 2020-12)
The Variability Index (VI) is widely used to quantify the intra-day solar radiation variability. It compares the length of the global horizontal irradiance (GHI) or direct normal irradiance (DNI) profiles with the length ...

An improved model for the synthetic generation of high temporal resolution direct normal irradiation time series
(Elsevier, 2015-12)
Several studies have confirmed the relevant impact of the resolution and frequency distribution of solar radiation data on the results of detailed production models. Many of the available direct normal irradiance (DNI) ...

Statistical analysis of CSP plants by simulating extensive meteorological series
(American Institute of Physics Inc., 2017-06)
The feasibility analysis of any power plant project needs the estimation of the amount of energy it will be able to deliver to the grid during its lifetime. To achieve this, its feasibility study requires a precise knowledge ...

A methodology for probabilistic assessment of solar thermal power plants yield
(American Institute of Physics Inc., 2017-06)
A detailed knowledge of the solar resource is a critical point to perform an economic feasibility analysis of Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) plants. This knowledge must include its magnitude (how much solar energy ...

Assessment of a Global-to-Direct empirical model for the long-term characterization of Direct Normal Insolation
(Elsevier, 2014)
The statistical characterization of the solar resource (direct normal solar radiation) is a key point in the initial phases of a solar thermal electricity (STE) plant project. Ideally, this characterization should be based ...
