Abstract

Based on observations of data,the solar radiation resources and actuality in use of Kunming have been studied.The results indicate that distribution characteristics of solar radiation in Kunming are unique,which can provide favorable environmental conditions for the use of solar energy,and result in marked rise of temperature in the solar-energy water heater when the weather is fine in dry season.By computing different popularization rate and temperature rise rate of the solar-energy water heater,it is seen that the effect of energy-saving is marked in Kunming in despite of limitations.It is important to utilize solar energy in cities by enhancing popularization rate of solar-energy water heater in Kunming.
