- Abstract
- This report outlines the technique that was used to compute and tabulate the monthly average incident radiation on an hourly basis during the day for each month of the year, and each of eight different vertical orientations. The data was tabulated for 80 different locations in the United States and Canada. An additional parameter called sol-air temperature for glass was also computed and tabulated for each of the locations.
