Solar radiation in the earth’s surface

Abstract

The work is devoted to the estimation of the intensity and energy of solar radiation at the earth's surface. The aim of the research is to develop a mathematical model of solar radiation, necessary for the design of devices forrenewable energy, as well as in the design and construction of buildings and structures. The mathematical model of solar radiation is realized in the Python code. The program code allows you to calculate the intensity of solar radiation and solar insolation on any day of the year. The model is verified by the results of experimental studies of solar radiation in the Odessa region and by the results of our own experimental datad.
