Original Abstract

The measuring of solar irradiance by means of a silicon photodiode element in alternation with well- established solar instruments can currently be applied. At present, it may have a feasible exploitation in the field of building applications concerning the solar radiant flux quantifying. There was observed during a long time of testing, that there are some facts whose discrepancies could currently be identified. The most cardinal issue is the cosine error of diode. A small functional prototype integrating silicone photodiode element was proposed and tested in confrontation with existing radiometer type to obtain a response of long-term in-situ measurements. This paper presents an obtained analytical formula for the calculation of correction factor during real monitored climate outdoor conditions. The revised scheme of sensors’s circuit and correlated data from long term testing in comparison with commercial pyranometer sensor is presented. Finally, an obtained correction factor derived from measurements with existing type demonstrates its applicability to the field of building science and solar energy.
