pvlib.forecast.NDFD.cloud_cover_to_irradiance_campbell_norman

NDFD.cloud_cover_to_irradiance_campbell_norman(cloud_cover, **kwargs)

Estimates irradiance from cloud cover in the following steps:

  1. Determine transmittance using a function of cloud cover e.g. cloud_cover_to_transmittance_linear()

  2. Calculate GHI, DNI, DHI using the pvlib.irradiance.campbell_norman() model

Parameters

cloud_cover (Series) –

Returns

irradiance (DataFrame) – Columns include ghi, dni, dhi
