This research presents an analysis of the estimated solar radiation using Maximum and minimum daily temperatures (Tdmax and Tdmin), and by applying six models. The estimated solar radiation was calibrated by the recently developed CSR model, and extensive digital data sets derived from satellite observations edited in the Atlas Solar Radiation for the Saudi Arabia edited by KACST with the collaboration of Center for renewable energy resources of Colorado. The model performance was analyzed using four statistical models (RMSE, ME, R2, MAE).| Pages | 12-22 |
