  2. Solar irradiance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_irradiance

    In fact, under clear skies a solar panel placed horizontally at the north or south pole at midsummer receives more sunlight over 24 hours (cosine of angle of incidence equal to sin(23.5°) or about 0.40) than a horizontal panel at the equator at the equinox (average cosine equal to 1/ π or about 0.32).

    A solar panel is a device that ... The amount of light absorbed by a solar cell depends on the angle of incidence ... (which can last several months and ...

  4. Solar-cell efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar-cell_efficiency

    Usually solar panels are exposed to sunlight for longer than this in a given day, but the solar irradiance is less than 1000 W/m 2 for most of the day. A solar panel can produce more when the Sun is high in Earth's sky and produces less in cloudy conditions, or when the Sun is low in the sky. The Sun is lower in the sky in the winter.

  5. Sun path - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_path

    A 2021 publication [8] about solar geometry first calculates the x-, y-, and z-component of the solar vector, which is a unit vector with its tail fixed at the observer's location and its head kept pointing toward the Sun, and then uses the components to calculate the solar zenith angle and solar azimuth angle. The calculated solar vector at 1 ...

  6. Solar gain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_gain

    The shading coefficient (SC) is a measure of the radiative thermal performance of a glass unit (panel or window) in a building.It is defined as the ratio of solar radiation at a given wavelength and angle of incidence passing through a glass unit to the radiation that would pass through a reference window of frameless 3 millimetres (0.12 in) Clear Float Glass. [3]

  7. Solar constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_constant

    The solar "constant" is not a physical constant in the modern CODATA scientific sense; that is, it is not like the Planck constant or the speed of light which are absolutely constant in physics. The solar constant is an average of a varying value. In the past 400 years it has varied less than 0.2 percent. [2]
