Significance and Use5.1 Solar-energy absorptance, reflectance, and transmittanceare important in the performance of all solar energy systemsranging from passive buildi

31、ng systems to central receiverpower systems. This test method provides a means for deter-mining these values under fixed conditions that represent anaverage that would be encountered during use of a system inthe temperate zone.5.2 Solar-energy absorptance, reflectance, and transmittanceare important

32、 for thermal control of spacecraft and the solarpower of extraterrestrial systems. This test method also pro-vides a means for determining these values for extraterrestrialconditions.5.3 This test method is designed to provide reproducibledata appropriate for comparison of results among laboratories

33、or at different times by the same laboratory and for comparisonof data obtained on different materials.5.4 This test method has been found practical for smoothmaterials having both specular and diffuse optical properties.Materials that are textured, inhomogeneous, patterned, orcorrugated require spe

34、cial consideration.5.4.1 Surface roughness may be introduced by physical orchemical processes, such as pressing, rolling, etching, ordeposition of films or chemical layers on materials, resulting intextured surfaces.5.4.2 The magnitude of surface roughness with respect tothe components of the spectr

35、ophotometer and attachments(light beam sizes, sphere apertures, sample holder configura-tion) can significantly affect the accuracy of measurementsusing this test method.5.4.3 Even if the repeatability, or precision of the measure-ment of textured materials is good, including repeated mea-surements

36、at various locations within or orientations of theE903 122sample, the different characteristics of different spectropho-tometers in different laboratories may result in significantdifferences in measurement results.5.4.4 In the context of 5.4.3, the term significant meansdifferences exceeding the ca

Measurements are typically made indoors usinglight sources other than natural sunligh

Practice E971 describes outdoormethods using natural sunlight over the spectral response rangeof the human eye.5.6 Light diffracted by gratings is typically significantlypolarized. For

40、 polarizing samples, measurement data will be afunction of the orientation of the sample. Polarization effectsmay be detected by measuring the sample with rotation atvarious angles about the normal to the samples.6. Apparatus6.1 Instrumentation:6.1.1 SpectrophotometerA spectrophotometer with an in-t

41、egrating sphere attachment capable of measuring the spectralcharacteristics of the test specimen or material over the solarspectral region from approximately 300 to 2500 nm is required.Double beam, ratio recording instruments are recommendedbecause of their low sensitivity to drift in source brightn

42、ess oramplifier gain. Recording spectrophotometers with integratingspheres that have been found satisfactory for this purpose arecommercially available.NOTE 1For determining extraterrestrial solar optical properties usingStandard E490, the spectral region should extend down to 250 nm.NOTE 2This test

43、 method is used primarily for solar thermal and somephotovoltaic applications that require the full spectral range be covered.There are other applications for which a narrower range is sufficient andthat could otherwise use the procedures of this test method. For example,some applications involving

44、photovoltaic cells utilize a narrower spectralresponsive range and some others pertain only to visible light propertiesthat have an even narrower spectral range. In such cases, the user of thetest method is permitted to use a narrower range. Similarly, a user with anapplication requiring a broader s

45、pectral range is permitted to use a broaderrange. Any deviations from the spectral range of this test method shouldbe noted in the report.6.1.1.1 The integrating sphere shall be either a wall-mounted type such that the specimen may be placed in directcontact with the rim of an aperture in the sphere

46、 wall fortransmittance and reflectance measurements or an Edwardstype such that the specimen is mounted in the center forreflectance and absorptance measurements.NOTE 3The interior of the integrating sphere shall be finished with astable highly reflecting and diffusing coating. Sphere coatings havin

47、g therequired properties can be prepared using pressed tetrafluoroethylenepolymer powder, or other highly reflective, stable material.NOTE 4For high accuracy (better than 60.01 reflectance units)measurements with absolute sphere configuration, the ratio of the port areato the sphere wall plus port a

48、rea should be less than 0.001 (1).8In general,large spheres ( 200 mm) meet these requirements and are preferred whilesmall spheres ( 100 mm) can give rise to large errors.6.1.1.2 For the evaluation of near normal-hemispherical orhemispherical-near-normal reflectance, the direction of theincident rad

49、iation or the direction of viewing respectively shallbe between 6 and 12 from the normal to the plane of thespecimen so that the specular component of the reflectedenergy is not lost through an aperture. Ambient light must beprevented from entering the sphere by placing a ring of blackor white material around the external rim of the specimen portsor by covering the entire sphere attachment with a light tighthousing.
