The surface solar radiation is an important indicators for climate and agricultural research over the Earth system. For the climate and agricultural research, long-term meteorological data and accurate measured data are needed. The daily solar radiation from Jan. 2001 to Dec. 2010 have been employed in this study analyze atmospheric transmissivity for Chupungryeong. The corresponding daily value of atmospheric transmissivity is calculated for Chupungryeong meteorological data. In this paper, relationship analysis of daily solar radiation and atmospheric transmissivity is presented. It shows that atmospheric transmissivity over late December peaked in the 2000s, substantially decreased from the early-January, and changed little after that in summer. Reduction of solar radiation caused a reduction of more than 0.3 in atmospheric transmissivity during July to August. It was concluded that the atmospheric transmissivity could be very useful for evaluating solar radiation. Atmospheric transmissivity approach is suitable for daily-term simulation studies and useful for computing solar radiation.

Effects of the number of spans, orientation and latitude on the transmissivities of direct and diffuse solar radiation in multispan glasshouse were analyzed using a computer simulation model (Kim and Lee, 1997). The number of spans did not affect the transmissivity of diffuse solar radiation, ranging 60∼61%. The transmissivities of direct solar radiation were 55∼64% for E-W orientation and 47∼70% for N-S orientation in ten multispan glasshouse. There was no effect of the latitude on the transmissivity of direct solar radiation in domestic regions. Differences in the transmissivity of direct solar radiation between single-span and multispan glasshouse were significant for E-W orientation during winter season; however, those were relatively small for N-S orientation throughout the year. Transmissivity of direct solar radiation decreased with the increasing number of spans for E-W glasshouse, whereas those for N-S glasshouse was hardly affected by the number of spans.

Direct and diffuse components of solar radiation were measured inside and outside a single-span plastic greenhouse. To analyze the direct solar radiation inside the plastic greenhouse, the cross-section of the greenhouse was assumed to be circular. Then the direct solar radiation transmitted into the greenhouse was calculated theoretically, and compared with the experimental measurements. The results are summarized as follows: (1) The transmissivities of total solar radiation were about 65% on cloudy days and 50% on clear days. For cloudy days, the transmissivity of the total solar radiation was regarded as the transmissivity of sky diffuse radiation. (2) The ratio of the inside effective scattered component of direct solar radiation to the diffuse radiation was 60-65%. (3) It appeared that the seasonal variation of the transmissivity of total solar radiation was adversely affected by the transmissivity of direct solar radiation and the effective scattered coefficient. But the effect of the transmissivity of direct solar radiation was dominant factor. (4) Computer simulation showed that the inside direct solar radiation was decreased as the floor of the plastic greenhouse was higher. (5) The predicted value of the inside direct solar radiation was 3.3% to 29.0% higher than the measured value.

A simulation model for the analysis of the transmissivity of direct and diffuse solar radiation In glasshouse was developed. This model would be applicable to investigate the influences of time of year, orientation and slope of glasshouse, dimensions of the frames used, and latitude of the site on the transmissivity of direct and diffuse solar radiation in single-span or multispan glasshouse. The transmissivity of diffuse solar radiation was 60.4％ for the single-span glass-house. It was independent of both orientation and time of year, During the winter season, the transmissivity of direct solar radiation was 67~69％ for the E-W orientation single-span glasshouse, which was 14~16％ higher than that for the S-N orientation. Oppositely the transmissivity of direct solar radiation for the S-N orientation was higher than that for the E-W orientation. during the autumn season. There was no influence of the latitude In the country on the transmissivity of direct solar radiation.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of the frame ratio and greenhouse length on the transmissivities of direct and diffuse solar radiation in glasshouse using a computer simulation model developed by Kim and Lee(1997). Transmissivity of diffuse solar radiation slightly decreased as the frame ratio increased. There was no effect of number of spans on the transmissivity of diffuse solar radiation at the same frame ratio. In single or multispan glasshouse, transmissivity of direct solar radiation was 1.5-3.0% higher at the frame ratio of 11.3% than those at the frame ratio of 14.9%. Also the transmissivity of direct solar radiation was 1.5-3.0% lower at the frame ratio of 18.3% than those at the frame ratio of 14.9%. Effect of the increased or decreased frame ratio on the transmissivity of direct solar radiation was similar in I-W or S-N glasshouse. Since the high transmissivity of direct solar radiation exerted a beneficial influence upon the plant growth during winter season, the light and endurable structural members were needed to maximize the transmission of solar radiation in glasshouse. Transmissivity of direct solar radiation in I-W or S-N glasshouse did not vary with the length of 24.5m long or more.

The temporal and spatial distribution of atmospheric transmissivity and depletion rate of solar radiation are investigated, and are compared to the concentration of several components of air pollution. The length of the data span is 11 years from 1983 to 1993. The data of radiation and sunshine rate recorded at 20 meteorological standard stations were used, and in order to investigate a relationship between the depletion rate of solar radiation and air pollution, the concentration data of air pollution observed in Seoul, Pusan, Taegu, Taejon and Kwangju were compiled from 1991 to 1993. Regression coefficient a and b vary from 0.100 to 0.209, from 0.464 to 0.691, and their means are 0.163 and 0.533, respectively. Climatological atmospheric transmissivity is ranged from 0.68 to 0.83, and its mean is 0.75. Atmospheric transmissivity is relatively low in Pusan, Taejon, Kwangju and Inchon which have large population and are highly industrialized. However, that in Chinju, Mokpo, Cheju and Sosan appears to be large compared to the aforementioned stations. Insolation rate of clear days varies from 0.71 to 0.58, and its mean is 0.63. Insolation rate of Kangnung and Chinju are higher than those of Seoul and Pusan by 5%. From the correlation coefficients between depletion rate of solar radiation and air pollution concentration, the most significant factors related to the depletion rate of solar radiation is appeared to be TSP followed by $SO_2$. Ozone shows a negative correlation, End $NO_2$ does not show a obvious correlation with the depletion rate of solar radiation.

A numerical and experimental studies are carried out to investigate the transient heat transfer characteristics of 5kWth dish-type solar air receiver. Measured solar radiation and temperatures at several different locations are used as boundary conditions for numerical simulation. Many parameters' effects (reflectivity of the reflector, the thermal conductivity of the receiver body, transmissivity of the quartz window, etc.) on the thermal performance are investigated. Discrete Transfer Method is used to calculate the radiation heat exchange in the receiver. A transient heat transfer model is developed and the rate of radiation, convection and conduction heat transfer are calculated. Comparing the experimental and numerical results, good agreement is obtained. Using the numerical model, the transient heat transfer characteristics of volumetric air receiver for dish-type solar thermal systems are known and the transient thermal performance of the receiver can be estimated.
