direct and diffused solar radiation

The potential of solar energy in Ukraine

In this paper the analysis of potential cumulative, direct, and diffuse solar radiation on the territory of Ukraine during to the period of one year and during the heating season is presented. It is shown that there is a change in these variables in Ukraine received empirical functional relationship to calculate the solar energy. The incoming solar energy in Ukraine has been analyzed according to its geographical position (i.e. latitudes). These research results may be used in the design and choice of location solar heating in Ukraine
