Modeling beam attenuation in solar tower plants using common DNI measurements

•The transmittance model of Sengupta and Wagner (2011) is enhanced and validated.•The model is enhanced by adapting altitude and water vapor content of validation site.•Several aerosol height profiles and a correction for Linke turbidity are tested.•The validation used 1year of measured extinction d...
