Download or read book The Solar Constant and the Solar Spectrum Measured from a Research Aircraft written by Matthew Pothen Thekaekara and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The solar constant and solar spectrum were measured from a research aircraft flying at 38,000 feet, above the highly variable and absorbing constituents of the atmosphere. A wide range of solar zenith angles was covered during six flights for over 14 hours. Eleven instruments, five for total irradiance and six for spectral irradiance, were employed. The instruments complemented each other in the measuring techniques employed and wavelength range covered, and were calibrated and operated by different experimenters. The combined results of these experiments are presented, and also a proposed standard for the solar constant and zero air mass solar spectral irradiance. The solar constant is found to equal 135.3 mW cm−2 or 1.90 cal min−1 cm−2

Download or read book Solar Energy Index written by George Machovec and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 1007 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solar Energy Index is an index of resources dealing with solar energy, including archival materials from the International Solar Energy Society collection; references to articles in major solar journals; patents and pamphlets; National Technical Information Service reports; unbound conference proceedings; and other assorted reports. Both theoretical and ""how-to-do-it"" publications are well represented. This book places particular emphasis on terrestrial solar thermal and photovoltaic applications of solar energy. Subjects are classified according to physics, terrestrial wind, collectors, space heating and cooling, economics, materials, distillation, thermal-electric power systems, photoelectricity, solar furnaces, cooking, biological applications, water heaters, photochemistry, energy storage, mechanical devices, evaporation, sea power, space flight applications, and industrial applications. Topics covered range from wind energy and bioconversion to ocean thermal energy conversion, heliohydroelectric power plants, solar cells, turbine generation systems, thermionic converters, batteries and fuel cells, and pumps and engines. This monograph will be of interest to government officials and policymakers concerned with solar energy.
Download or read book ELEMENTS OF SPACE PHYSICS SECOND EDITION written by SINGHAL, R. P. and published by PHI Learning Pvt. Ltd.. This book was released on 2022-05-09 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Primarily intended for the undergraduate and postgraduate students of Physics, Space Physics, Astronomy and Space Physics, Astrophysics, Engineering Physics and Earth System Sciences, this concise and systematically organized text covers all the essential aspects of physical and chemical processes in the planetary spheres. This book is an attempt to collect various topics of solar system and planetary physics at one place in a comprehensive manner. It describes the phenomena of planetary atmospheres, ionospheres and magnetospheres. NEW TO THE SECOND EDITION The second edition, while retaining the thorough coverage of the various areas of space physics—Sun and its emissions, basic characteristics of the planetary system, their interaction with solar wind and plasma waves, aurora and airglow, planetary atmospheres with special reference to their composition and temperature, cosmic rays and cometary physics, throws light on a new chapter on Diffuse Aurora that discusses resonant wave particle interactions, observations of diffuse aurora, ECH wave observations, whistler mode wave observations, pitch angle diffusion and magnetosphere–ionosphere coupling. The text includes mathematical derivations followed by observations on each planet which is supported by numerous figures and tables. KEY FEATURES • Gives mathematical formulations in general, which can be applied to any planet. • Provides adequate number of illustrations. • Offers easy mathematical derivations using simple aids at appropriate places. • Includes a large number of literature references.
