Abstract

This work aimed at adjusting the Angstron’s equation coefficients, on monthly and annual basis, to the region of Palotina (24º17'S, 53º50'30'' W and 333m of altitude), Paraná, Brazil. The purpose was to determine the global solar radiation on a daily basis. Climatic data of global solar radiation and total daily sunshine, from 1982 to 2002 were used to fit the equation. Lower values (7,82MJ m-2) of global solar radiation were verified at months with north solar declination and higher values (22,07MJ m-2) at months with south solar declination, with annual mean value of 14,27MJ m-2. The radiation that reached the atmosphere top presented similar annual trend, with a lowest value of 21,58MJ m-2 on June 24th and highest value of 44,51MJ m-2 on January 1st. Annual mean value was of 33,45MJ m-2. Higher value of insolation ratio were obtained in the winter and lower values occurred in the summer, ranging from 0,13 to 0,97, with 0,58 as a mean value. The brightness index ranged from 0,32 to 0,55, and 0,55 constitute the maximum brightness index for the region of Palotina, Paraná
