  • Photovoltaic support wind tunnel report

    Photovoltaic support wind tunnel report

    This paper investigates the wind load characteristics of large-span flexible-support PV arrays with different tilt angles through wind tunnel pressure measurements. The results indicate that, in terms of mean wind pressure coefficient, 0° and 180° are the most unfavorable wind. The wind load is the most significant loadwhen designing a PV support; thus,its value and calculation should be investigated. Different countries have their own specifications and,consequently,equations for the wind loads of PV supports. How to reduce wind load of PV support structure? It is also. This has led to the widespread development of photovoltaic (PV) power generation systems. For sustainable development, corresponding wind load research should be carried out on PV supports. The. Most existing aeroelastic wind tunnel tests on flexible photovoltaic (PV) support structures focus on single support forms, lacking comparisons of wind-induced vibration responses between different support types and multi-zone/multi-point refined analyses.
