Photovoltaics
Photovoltaics (PV) is the conversion of light into electricity using semiconducting materials that exhibit the photovoltaic effect, a phenomenon studied in physics, photochemistry, and electrochemistry. The
View DetailsThe wind-induced vibration characteristics of the photovoltaic support system are investigated from a time-domain analysis perspective, offering valuable insights for the wind resistance design of array photovoltaic tracking supports.
Therefore, wind resistance is essential for a safe, durable, and sustainable PV power generation system. There are three modes of support in PV power generation systems: fixed, flexible, and floating [4, 5]. Fixed PV supports are structures with the same rear position and angle.
He et al. studied the cable-supported flexible photovoltaic module support system and found that the wind-induced vibration of the system was obvious, and the horizontal connection that could effectively improve the wind resistance performance of the photovoltaic array was added, (Fig. 2 a).
The wind-induced vibration caused by wind loads is one of the main reasons for the failure of PV supports, so the research focus is not only to improve the power generation efficiency of PV systems but also to reduce the wind-induced vibration of PV support structures.
