Zusammenfassung

This paper deals the study of variability and intermittency of solar irradiation using an analogy with the turbulence and thus making use of some methodologies used in the study of intermittency of the turbulence. An analysis of the shape of the PDFs corresponding to the increments in the clearness and transmittance indexes, for direct and global radiations, is presented. In addition a study of the relations between the scaling exponents of the structure functions of the clearness and transmittance indexes and the orders of these structure functions has been carried out. According to the study, the range of relative variability is due to changes in the atmospheric components that play a role in the attenuation of solar irradiation. This range of variability is higher in the case of the global irradiation than in the case of the direct. Moreover, the multifractality is showed more intense in sites where, due to local effects, sharper variations in the radiation can be expected, as the case of deserts.
