<DIV>oOOps... so obvious i couldn't see it. I needed to adjust the timestep of my brain.</DIV> <DIV>I was about to ask about these annoying peaks in the diffuse radiation at sunrise, and i've realized that when using T54 the solar time has to be advanced by 15 degrees in T16. I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere, so now it is at least once.</DIV> <DIV>I've read in an old message by Michael Kummert that type 16 with radiation smoothing had several known "issues". I intend to use it with the weather generator, for a distributable of a PV system. I haven't observed anything abnormal yet, do you think it can be used without risk? </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thanks.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Gabriel Colomer<BR>Industrial Engineer<BR>41.23N/2.11E </DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid"> <DIV>I'm trying to use the weather generator T54 with version 15.3, and i'm getting confusing results. <BR>For

only gets close when direct is small.<BR>In winter, sunny days, direct radiation is much greater than global (almost double).</DIV> <DIV>Should i ignore direct radiations and use global and diffuse?
