For an hour 11 AM to 12 noon on a clear winter day, I_B = 1.38 MJ/m2, and I_D = 0.41 MJ/m2. Ground reflectance is 0.6. For this hour, the incidence angle ? for the beam radiation is 17°, and RB = 2.11. A collector with one glass cover is sloped 60° and facing the south. The glass has KL = 0.037, and the absorptance of the plate at normal incidence ?n is 0.93. Calculate the absorbed radiation per unit area of the absorber.
