How to Use the Solar Power Meter to Measure Irradiance

 

 

 

Terms in use


Irradiance - Sun's power per unit area, Watts/m2

Insulation - Sun's energy per unit area, i.e.  Watt-hours/m2

Active Area - Area of PV material in the array, excluding module framing.

Efficiency -  Efficiency of PV Solar Panels converting solar  power (irradiance) to dc power


How to Use the Solar Power Meter to Measure Irradiance


  • Hold or place the Solar Power Meter in the same orientation as the PV array.

  • Record the reading of irradiance (solar power) in Watts per square meter.

  • Note: If possible, a PV array should be tested on a clear day around solar noon.

  • Consult the PV module specification to determine the area of the PV array.

  • This should be the “active area” of the PV cells excluding the frame of the PV modules. Calculate the active area in square meters.

  • Multiply the irradiance reading and the active area to get total solar power striking the the array at that instant, the input power (Watts).

  • Consult the PV module specifications to determine the conversion efficiency of the PV modules used in the array.

  • Multiply the input power by the efficiency to estimate the power the array could produce under existing conditions.

  • In most instances, this number will be greater than the output power because losses and temperature effects have not been considered.

The Extreme Ultraviolet Variability Experiment (EVE) (01:47)
Dean Pesnell explains how the The Extreme Ultraviolet Variability Experiment (EVE) instrument will allow us to better measure solar irradiance in extreme ultraviolet wavelengths. This type of irradiance, which is absorbed completely by Earth's upper atmosphere, can be dangerous to astronauts and electronics in space. It can also heat up and expand the outer atmosphere, potentially causing satellites to fall out of orbit. High resolution download at: http://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/vis/a010000/a010400/a010441/index.html
