Keywords:
cloud amount, global solar radiation, empirical equation, Puket provinceAbstract
In this research, the monthly average daily cloud amount estimation model is developed from the monthly average daily global solar radiation data in Puketi province between 2006 - 2016 , and test the model with data from 2017 - 2019. In this study , nine empirical models were derived from the Angström - Prescott linear regression model and its derivatives such as quadratic , cubic , logarithmic , exponential and power. The result found that the best performance model was correlated between the ratio of monthly average daily cloud amount to maximum cloud volume of measurement , and the monthly average daily global solar radiation per daily extraterrestrial radiation
as
. That provides statistical analysis results are the correlation coefficient (R) , the Nash - Sutcliffe coefficient (NS) , root mean square error (RMSE) , mean bias error (MBE) , mean absolute bias error (MABE) , mean percentage error (MPE) , mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) and t-statistic (t-stat) equal to 0.884 0.781 0.468 0.310 0.340 5.086% 5.561% and 2.929 , respectively. This received a global performance indicator (GPI) assignment of 0.619. According to the results , the exponential model predicted and the measurements are consistent and can be applied to other a similar climate area.
