6 FAQs about [Standard table of wind pressure coefficient for photovoltaic brackets]

What is the wind vibration coefficient of flexible PV support structure?

The wind vibration coefficients in different zones under the wind pressure or wind suction are mostly between 2.0 and 2.15. Compared with the experimental results, the current Chinese national standards are relatively conservative in the equivalent static wind loads of flexible PV support structure. 1. Introduction

Do solar panels have negative net pressure coefficients?

The negative net pressure coefficients of the PV panel were lower than those on the roof without PV panels mounted through wind pressure tests by Wood et al. (2001). The wind loads of the PV array were influenced significantly by the PV panel tilt angle and the PV array setback from the roof leading edge.

Do different roof types affect the net wind load of PV panels?

Different roof types cause different flow patterns around PV panels, thus change the flow mechanism exerted on PV panels. In this study, the effects of roof types, heights and the PV array layouts on the net wind loads of the PV panel is investigated.

What is the basic wind pressure of a PV structure?

In a site with category B, 25 years return period, and a height of 10 m, the basic wind pressure of the PV structure is w0 = 0.45 kN/m 2. and the wind pressure height coefficient μz is 1.0. Then Eq. (6) is used to compare the test results with the code.

Does roof-mounted PV panel affect wind pressure?

The wind pressure on the ground-mounted PV panel is mainly affected by PV array parameters, while the roof-mounted PV panel is also affected by the building dimensions and the roof types. This study focuses on the PV array mounted on roof.

What is a negative net wind load coefficient for a flat roof?

For the flat roof, the largest negative net wind load coefficient of the PV array tends to decrease from −0.12 to −0.23 as the PV array edge setback decreases from 2.1 m to 1.2 m. The PV array can be affected by the vortex separated from the roof leading edge significantly as the PV array edge setback decreases.
