Purposes In order to improve the effect of solar heating in northern China, a classification research method of meteorological parameters based on clustering analysis is proposed. Methods By analyzing the influence of various meteorological parameters on solar heating effect, environmental temperature and solar radiation intensity were determined as clustering indices. Six first-level indices and one second-level temperature series index were selected as clustering indices. k-means method was used to cluster and analyze the winter (110 meteorological days) in Taiyuan area, and contour coefficient was used to evaluate the dissimilarity within and between groups. Finally, the 110 meteorological days were divided into 14 categories, and the typical days were selected for each category. Results The results show that, when the contour coefficient is greater than 0.62, the time interval does not affect the clustering effect of ambient temperature. The sample temperature and radiation changes in the 14 groups are similar, the difference between the temperature and radiation changes is obvious, and the clustering results are reasonable. The meteorological day with the smallest distance from the center of each group is selected as the typical day.
