    The sky characterization according to the CIE Standard General Sky: comparative analysis of three classification methods
    (Elsevier, 2020) García Ruiz, Ignacio; Blas Corral, María Ángeles de; Torres Escribano, José Luis; Ingeniaritza; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería
    Since the publication of the standard sky luminance distributions (SSLD) that was consolidated in the ISO 15469:2004(E)/CIE S 011/E:2003, numerous procedures have emerged for the characterization of the sky condition according to that standard. Precisely, the use of different procedures for the classification of the skies of a certain place according to the ISO/CIE standard can lead to obtain different frequencies of sky types. The existing uncertainties in the characterization of the sky condition according to the CIE Standard General Sky as a consequence of the classification procedure used are analyzed in this study. For this, three different classification procedures are used to characterize the sky radiance and luminance distribution measurements made by means of a sky-scanner in Pamplona (Spain) from 2007 to 2013. That is, (1) a method focused on determining the relative gradation and indicatrix functions, (2) a method based on the comparison of measured and standard luminances normalized against the horizontal diffuse illuminance, and (3) a new high-spatial-resolution approach that compares measured and standard luminances relative to zenith. In general terms, it is concluded that there is some uncertainty in the classification depending on the procedure used to characterize the sky.

    Proposal and evaluation of typical illuminance year (TIY) generation procedures from illuminance or irradiance data for daylight assessment in the long term

    When assessing the long-term daylight availability or the performance of natural lighting systems in a given location, it is necessary to have representative data of local daylight conditions. The use of a daylight test reference year (TRY) becomes a good option in these cases. This paper proposes and evaluates a procedure for the generation of a typical illuminance year (TIY) considering illuminance as the only variable for selecting the typical periods that make up the reference year. Two versions of TIY are presented, one composed of 12 typical months selected from the series of observations and another composed of 365 typical days. Each of these versions is used to obtain a global illuminance TIY (TGIY) and a diffuse illuminance TIY (TDIY) from a 27-year dataset corresponding to the Vaulx-en-Velin station (France). Furthermore, 12 luminous efficacy models have been evaluated in order to obtain a TIY from a TRY generated from irradiance data when no illuminance data are available. Thus, a global luminous efficacy model and a diffuse model are selected after benchmarking different models, considering both their original coefficients and those adjusted to local conditions. The results reveal that the monthly version of the TGIY and the daily version of the TDIY show the best overall fit to the long-term dataset. TIYs obtained from illuminance data are also observed to be statistically indistinguishable from those obtained after applying a luminous efficacy model to an irradiance-based TRY.

    Evaluación comparativa de 19 modelos de estimación de irradiancia difusa sobre planos inclinados dependiendo del tipo de cielo estándar ISO/CIE
    (LNEG, 2020) García Ruiz, Ignacio; Torres Escribano, José Luis; Blas Corral, María Ángeles de; Sáenz Gamasa, Carlos; Hernández Salueña, Begoña; Illanes, R.; Ingeniería; Ingeniaritza; Ciencias; Zientziak
    En este trabajo se han evaluado 19 modelos de estimación de irradiancia difusa sobre el plano inclinado, que incluyen tanto modelos isotrópicos o pseudoisotrópicos como modelos anisotrópicos. Dicha evaluación se ha llevado a cabo a partir una serie de 5396 observaciones de irradiancia global, difusa y directa realizadas entre julio y diciembre de 2018 en la estación radiométrica de la Universidad Pública de Navarra (UPNA). El estado del cielo correspondiente a cada observación se ha caracterizado de acuerdo con el CIE Standard General Sky propuesto en la norma ISO 15469:2004(E)/CIE S 011/E:2003. Para esta clasificación se han utilizado las medidas de distribución angular de luminancia y radiancia proporcionadas por un escáner de cielo ubicado en la propia estación de la UPNA. De tal manera que, para cada combinación de orientación e inclinación del plano, se ha evaluado la bondad de los distintos modelos de acuerdo con los 15 tipos de cielo estándar propuestos por la norma ISO/CIE. Los resultados revelan que el modelo de Perez et al. 2 presenta los mejores resultados globales, así como en 5 de los 15 tipos de cielo ISO/CIE.
