Measurements were made with the use of QRT, OG1, RG2 and RG8 Schott glass fillers, allowing the division of the solar spectrum into 4 bands. The percentage of direct normal solar irradiance was found to increase in the wavelength regions under 630 nm and to decrease in the regions with longer wavelengths. © 1995 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
