Evaluation of Sun’s radiation is really an important aspect for evaluating the global solar radiation of sun, as it gives the entire solar availability at a given location and can be calculated by using different empirical models as well by using measuring equipments. Unfortunately, many areas cannot measure solar radiation due to maintenance issues and the high cost of the equipment used for measuring it. Hence, empirical models were established as a substitute to roughly calculate the solar radiation datas. This work is to compare the empirical models and find the suitable one to approximate the global monthly Sun’s radiation on parallel plane surfaces in the city, Visakhapatnam. The value of measured global solar radiance data facilitates the approximation of global radiation. And the execution of the empirical models are assessed using statistical error tests and in the end following the observations, it’s declared that ANN model was reliable and accurate.
