Solar irradiation on vertical surfaces in Shah Alam / Nur Izzati Zaharah Mohamed Azam
The solar irradiation on four vertical surfaces facing North, East, South and West orientations, were measured at Shah Alam. The irradiation on the horizontal surface was also measured simultaneously. The results of the measurements were compared with the simulated data using the Perez Model. The R...
