Modeling of optimum inclination angles of solar systems for Amman, Jordan

Authors: A. Tamimi;
doi: 10.1063/1.3610974
Abstract
A generalized analytical model was developed to determine the optimum inclination angle of flat-plate solar collector for any location worldwide. The developed analytical model was found to be directly related to the latitude φ of the location under consideration, the declination angle δ of the earth axis, and the day hour angle at sunset ωs at any day throughout the year. The optimum inclination angle βopt was expressed by a generalized mathematical model. This model was applied to Amman, Jordan. The results were compared with those calculated by NASA and showed very good agreement.
