Abstract

The long-term evaluation of the performance of solar energy conversion systems is established through the knowledge of solar irradiation at the installation site. This study is in the context of the characterization of solar energy resources in Mahajanga for application to solar energy conversion. For this, it is important to have effective methods for estimating the solar surface energy on the ground called also global terrestrial horizontal radiation. Three models for predicting the solar reservoir are adopted : Semi-empirical models (Lacis & Hansen, Davies & Hay), Meteorological models (Garg and Hussein) and Spectral models (Leckner and Richard Bird and Riordan). These models make it possible to calculate the three components of solar irradiation: direct, diffuse and global. The analysis of the results obtained shows a good correlation between the results calculated by the different models. It is also clear that the Mahajanga region has good sunshine which is favourable to the use of energy systems.
