The design of systems for utilization of solar energy as an alternate energy source necessitates reasonable estimates of the expected insolation in any region of interest. Climatological data on sky cover and visibility are routinely available in most areas, but good insolation data are not. From a

An examination of normal incidence solar intensity t NISI) data taken at Fort Hood, Texas, from September 1974 through November 1975 has shown repetitive patterns for intensities in clear weather. A correlation is developed which predicts the NISI at any hour of any day of the year in clear weather

A new procedure is developed for estimating availability of solar energy in localities where adequate data are not available. The hourly variations in solar intensity with day of the year during clear weather (essentially no clouds and unlimited visibility) are shown to follow regular repeatable pat
