Abstract

Measurements of global solar radiation, diffuse radiation and sunshine duration data during the period from 1982 to 1988 at different locations over Egypt were used to establish empirical relationships that would connect the daily monthly average diffuse irradiation with both relative sunshine duration and clearness index separately and in combination. The selected locations were chosen to represent the different weather conditions of North, Middle and South Egypt. Our correlation equations were tested using measured data for the year 1992 at the same locations. The correlation connecting diffuse radiation with both clearness index and percentage possible sunshine is found to be applicable over Egypt.
