Single Axis Solar Tracking System Project Report

Trackers are available in two types namely single axis and dual axis trackers.

Single axis solar tracking system project report.

Dual axis solar tracker a project report submitted in partial fulfilment. Economic feasibility and delivery of expected results to drive the single axis solar tracker segment s growth. My role in the single axis solar tracker project was to design and build the frame. 4 abstract the project involves design and implementation of an automatic microcontroller based solar tracker system expected to be used in photovoltaic conversion panels.

The first step was figuring out what size the frame needed to be to support our motor and shaft. Accommodating variable slope tolerances and having adjustable row lengths up to 120 modules allows this system the flexibility to adapt to a variety of site conditions that used to impact tracker designs. The single axis trackers move to and fro following the sunlight. 2229 5518 states that a single axis tracker tracks the sun east to west and a two axis tracker.

Sf8 is a multidrive tracker with at least 4 strings of up to 100 kw. Single axis tracker projects also require an additional focus on company stability and bankability. It was determined that the frame would be six inches wide with fifteen inches length on the base. Dual axis solar tracker can simultaneously track sun s radiation in both horizontal and vertical axis.

Trackers are a more complex system than fixed racking. They use the same principle as the mountings of astronomical telescopes. This work introduces an application of two axis sun tracking system which follows the position of the sun and allows investigating effect of 2 axis tracking system on the power of solar energy. In order to achieve maximum efficiency the device tracks seasonal.

Solar trackers are slightly more expensive that their stationary counterparts due to the more complex technology and moving parts necessary for their operation. The innovative sunflower ii design from rbi solar is not bound by the limitations of other commercial single axis tracker systems. The proposed single axis solar tracker device functions to ensure the optimization of the photovoltaic panel in accordance with the real position of the sun.
