Solar Energy Meteorological Research and Training Program: Region Four. Final report
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5638498
Five categories of grant activities were pursued in the Region Four SMRT Program: development of new procedures of acquiring more accurate solar-meteorological data particularly tilted surface and beam irradiance data; recording new, more accurate data sets; data analysis and/or algorithm development and verification; regional resource assessment; and education in the acquisition, and analysis, and application of solar-meteorological data. Although the Region Four activities in all five of these categories are described and referenced, this report focuses primarily on the first three of these activities. The extensive new, quality-controlled data sets acquired at the primary research site at Trinity University are presented as daily and monthly listings. Less extensive data sets recorded by Baylor University are included in separately bound appendices. Data sets acquired at the University of Houston are listed in references. The facilities, maintenance, and quality control procedures used at the primary site are documented in detail. Magnetic tape copies of the data sets are referenced. The extensive data analysis and new algorithm developments are summarized and sources of further details referenced. Regional resource maps resulting from new regional resource assessments are included. Educational activities are briefly summarized.
