As a result, solar tracking support technology has been extensively employed in the domain of solar photovoltaic power generation. When the tilt angle of the tracking photovoltaic support system changes, the mass and stiffness distribution of the whole structure change correspondingly.
The tracking photovoltaic support system (Fig. 1) is mainly composed of an axis bar, PV support purlins, pillars (including one driving pillar in the middle and nine other non-driving pillars), sliding bearings and a driving device. The axis bar is composed of 11 shaft rods. Photovoltaic panels are installed on the photovoltaic support purlins.
The installation of solar trackers can improve the performance of photovoltaic panels by up to 40%. Single-axis systems increase efficiency between 25% and 30%, while dual-axis trackers add between 5% and 10% more, which translates into greater solar energy generation.
The main application of solar tracking system is to position solar photovoltaic (PV) panels towards the Sun. Most commonly they are used with mirrors to redirect sunlight on the panels. Cross-Reference: Design and Implementation of High Efficiency Tracking System
