6 FAQs about [Suspended photovoltaic panels are affected by wind]

What are the main wind load issues associated with PV supports?

Making full use of the previous research results, the following are the main wind load issues associated with the three types of PV supports: (1) the factors affecting the wind loads of PV supports—the main factors are shown in Figure 2; (2) the wind-induced vibration of PV supports; (3) the value and calculation of the wind load of a PV support.

How does wind load affect PV panel support?

2. Influencing Factors of Wind Load of PV Panel Support 2.1. Panel Inclination Angle The angle β between the PV panel and the horizontal plane is called the panel inclination (Figure 3). Because of the PV panel’s varying inclination angle, a PV power generation system’s wind load varies, impacting the system’s power generation efficiency. Figure 3.

Does wind-induced vibration affect flexible PV supports?

Discussion The wind load is a vital load affecting PV supports, and the harm caused by wind-induced vibration due to wind loads is enormous. Aiming at the wind-induced vibration of flexible PV supports, a PV building integration technology [86, 87] was proposed to reduce the harm caused by wind vibration.

Does wind speed affect the vibration amplitude of PV panel?

The results indicate that under the boundary layer flow, the vibration amplitude of PV panel increases almost linearly with the square of wind speed, and vortex shedding induced vibration might occur at low wind speeds.

Are photovoltaic power generation systems vulnerable to wind loads?

(1) Background: As environmental issues gain more attention, switching from conventional energy has become a recurring theme. This has led to the widespread development of photovoltaic (PV) power generation systems. PV supports, which support PV power generation systems, are extremely vulnerable to wind loads.

How does wind load affect PV power generation?

A wind load accelerates the cooling of PV panels, thereby reducing the cell’s temperature and increasing the power generation efficiency for PV power generation. However, the PV panel generates wind-induced vibration due to the wind load, which can damage the system (Figure 12).
