The 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.
Can a cable-supported flexible photovoltaic module support system improve wind resistance?
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.
Wind resistance strategies include: a, proper site selection, b, robust structural design, c, effective windbreak integration, d, foundational stability enhancements. . High wind is a major challenge for PV systems, especially in exposed areas such as coastal, desert or mountainous areas. Intense gusts can exert high pressures on structures, generating the phenomenon known as the sail effect, which increases the risk of misalignment, physical damage and, in severe. . Designing solar power systems to withstand wind and weather is crucial for maintaining profitable solar farms.
