About
J. Prathumsit is a researcher specializing in solar energy modeling and daylighting estimation, with a particular focus on tropical climates. Their most cited work, "A semi-empirical approach for the estimation of global, direct and diffuse illuminance under clear sky condition in the tropics" (2013), has garnered 6 citations, reflecting its niche but valuable contribution to the field. This study introduced a practical, semi-empirical model that improves the accuracy of illuminance predictions for tropical regions, addressing a critical gap in solar radiation research where existing models often fail under local atmospheric conditions. By providing a reliable method for estimating daylight components—global, direct, and diffuse—Prathumsit’s work supports applications in building energy efficiency, solar energy system design, and agricultural planning in the tropics. Though their citation count is modest, the targeted impact of this research is significant for practitioners and researchers working in equatorial environments, where accurate solar data is essential for sustainable development. Prathumsit’s approach exemplifies how region-specific modeling can enhance the precision of renewable energy and daylighting assessments, offering a foundational tool for further studies in tropical solar resource assessment.
