Question 1: At Suva (ø =-18°) at 9 a.m. on 20 May, the irradiance measured on a horizontal plane was Gh= 1.0MJ/h/m². (a) Determine the angle 0, between the beam radiation and the vertical, and hence find the irradiance G' = (G, + G.) measured in the beam direction. (Assume that G << Gp.) (b) Under the same assumptions as in (a), determine the angle 0̟ between the beam and a collector of slope 30° facing due North. Hence find the irradiance G, on the collector.

(a) Determine the angle 0, between the beam radiation and the vertical, and hence find the irradiance G* = (G, + Ga) measured in the beam direction. (Assume that G << Gp.) (b) Under the same assumptions as in (a), determine the angle 0, between the beam and a collector of slope 30° facing due North. Hence find the irradiance G, on the collector.
