SIR_Data: SIRData class

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) Examples

Description

Constructor function of the objects of SIRData class needed to perform the clustering procedure of the daily clearness index distrubtions. Once you create a SIRData object, you no longer need other inputs. All the rest work will done automatically.

Usage

1
SIR_Data(Ghi_from = NULL, Ehi_from = NULL, Ehi_to = NULL, Xbins = NULL)

Arguments

Ghi_from

list of the global solar irradiance data with 10-min or 15-min loggin interval. Each component represents a day. Since the day lengths throughout the year are not equal, the class list is the most suitable.

Ehi_from

list of the corresponding extraterrestrial solar irradiance data of Ghi_from with the same time resolution.

Ehi_to

list of the extraterrestrial solar irradiance data of the 1-min resolution.

Xbins

numeric(1) represents the number of bins to create the matrix of the daily clearness index distributions.

Value

an object of class SIRData
