Resumen
Los valores de la radiación solar global ultravioleta fueron medidos con un radiómetro ultravioleta y también predichos con un modelo espectral atmosférico. Los valores obtenidos con el modelo espectral atmosférico, que se basa físicamente, fueron analizados y comparados con los valores experimentales medidos in situ. Las medidas fueron realizadas para diferentes ángulos cenitales en condiciones de cielos claros en Heredia, Costa Rica. Los datos de entrada necesarios incluyen latitud, altitud, albedo superficial, distancia Tierra-Sol, así como características atmosféricas: turbiedad atmosférica, agua precipitable y ozono atmosférico. La comparación entre los valores medidos y predichos dio resultados satisfactorios.
Values of ultraviolet global solar radiation were measured with an ultraviolet radiometer and also predicted with an atmospheric spectral model. The values obtained with the atmospheric spectral model, which is physically based, were analyzed and compared with the experimental values measured in situ. The measurements were performed for different zenith angles under clear skies conditions in Heredia, Costa Rica. The necessary input data include latitude, altitude, surface albedo, Earth-Sun distance, as well as atmospheric characteristics: atmospheric turbidity, precipitable water and atmospheric ozone. The comparisons between the measured and predicted values gave satisfactory results.
