Abstract

With measured data of global solar radiation and the relevant data of geographic and meteorological parameters at 7 meteorological stations in Yunnan Province, the correlations between monthly average global solar radiation on horizontal surfaces and relative duration of sunshine are developed in this special region which has significantly varying climates. It is believed that the two correlations developed in this work are applicable for estimating monthly global solar radiation on horizontal surfaces at any site in Yunnan Province, China.
