The article considers the method of evaluating the parameters of equivalent schemes of solar panels using data provided by their manufacturers. The technique involves the use of a digitized volt-ampere characteristic of the solar panel and standard test conditions parameters (STC) to estimate the numerical derivatives at the points of short and open circuit. Digitizing the volt-ampere characteristic introduces some error, which significantly affects the accuracy of determining numerical derivatives. To solve this problem, it is advisable to average the values of the derivatives. It was found that it is sufficient to take 20-25% of the first points and 8-15% of the last points of the digitized curve. In this case, to estimate the value of the derivative at the point of short circuit, it is advisable to use linear fit, and at the point of open circuit – quadratic fit. The peculiarities of using the obtained formulas and the block diagram of the algorithm that implements this technique were also given. A fixed point algorithm is used to solve the transcendental equation of the external characteristic of the solar panel. It was found that in some cases this numerical method may not convergences near the open circuit point. To solve this problem, in the proposed to use the relaxation method. This increases the required number of iterations, but guarantees the convergence of numerical method. The block diagram of the simple iteration algorithm using the relaxation method is given. Modeling the developed technique, one- and two-diode solar panel replacement schemes were used on the example of KC200GT and ST40 solar panels. A comparative analysis of these schemes showed that a single-diode circuit is more relevant, because its use simplifies calculations and eliminates the need for a number of assumptions. The accuracy of the approximation provided by the single-diode circuit is proportional to the accuracy of the two-diode circuit. A comparative analysis of the developed methodology with other works was performed. The results indicate that the proposed algorithm provides the best approximation accuracy among the considered works. For monocrystalline solar panels, the average standard error is 7 times less and the modulus of relative error - 4 times. For polycrystalline panels, the average standard error is 1.5 times less, and the modulus of relative error is 1.75 times. For polycrystalline panels, the approximation error increases due to a non-unit value of the ideality factor for this manufacturing technology of the solar panels.

This paper represents the comparison of the voltages generated by the tracking and static solar panels. The work also aims to design and  fabrication of a cheap and efficient tracking device. This device comprises of hardware and software. A rigid mechanical structure with nut and  screw as the transmission is developed. 4 LDRs and DC motors are employed, which are cheap and less power consuming. As far as the software  concerns, an open source microcontroller “Arduino UNO” board is used because of their simplicity and cost effectiveness. This Sun tracking device with a PV panel installed on it, is placed outside at the roof of the building along with a static solar panel. Output voltages generated from both panels are recorded in SD card through data logger in Arduino UNO. This real-time data shows the difference in amplitude of both the signals. Voltage of rotating panel is more than static one resulting that the tracking device can increase the efficiency of the panel by exposing the PV panel more to the sun light. Hence this setup proves that the solar panel with tracking system generates more energy than solar panel without tracking system. Keywords: Solar Tracker, LDR, PV Panel, Arduino UNO Board.

The use of renewable energy as a source of electrical energyincreases every year. Unfortunately, Indonesia does not have manypower plants that utilize renewable energy sources. The mostpotential renewable energy in Indonesia is the sunlight with the helpof solar panels that converts solar energy into electrical energy.However, the environment could affect the solar panel module andin turn, affect the performance of solar panels or the generatedelectric energy. This research calculated the performance of solarpanels with a single-diode model using the Five Parameters methodthat required solar panel module specification data, the totalradiation absorbed by the solar panel module, and the temperatureof the environment. The Five Parameters method is a methodmodeled after solar panel module performance in the form of thesingle-diode equivalent circuit. The Five Parameters method isreliable in predicting the energy produced by the solar panels whenthe input data is limited. The results for using the Five Parametersin monocrystalline solar panels were Isc = 1.827 A, Imp = 0.662 A,Voc = 18.221 V, Vmp = 15.019 V, Pmp = 9.955 W. And the results inpolycrystalline solar panels were Isc = 1.926 A, Imp = 0.686 A, Voc =17.594 V, Vmp = 14.166 V, Pmp = 9.722 W. Based on the results; itwas concluded that the most efficient and optimised types of solarpanels on natural conditions in Sendang Biru Beach was themonocrystalline solar panel because it produced electrical outputpower of 9.955 W. Therefore, there could be a manufacturer ofsolar energy power plants to reduce the cost of electricity in thecoastal area, such as in Sendang Biru Beach.

People can make solar energy alternative energy by employing solar panels to generate electricity. The utilization of solar energy on a solar panel to generate electricity is affected by the weather and the duration of the radiation, and they will affect the solar panel’s temperature. There are various types of solar panels that can be found on the market today, including Mono-Crystalline and Poly-Crystalline. The difference in the material used needs to be observed in terms of temperature changes in the solar module. Our study’s findings showed that a change in the temperature would impact the solar panel’s output voltage, and the solar panel’s output voltage would change when it was connected to the load although the measured temperatures were almost the same.

The work is devoted to the investigation of the effectiveness of the coordinate search methods for solving the problem of finding the position of the solar panels, in which the greatest power of the produced current is achieved. The existing solutions in the market of sun surveillance systems (solar trackers) are analyzed. The advantages and disadvantages of such systems are presented in comparison with fixed panels. It is proposed to improve the hardware and software for research of the solar panels efficiency, developed by the authors and highlighted in the previous works, by integrating the program realization of the algorithm of coordinate search of the maximum power of solar panels into the existing. For this purpose, the efficiency of three algorithms for coordinate search of the maximum, namely, the method of coordinate ascending, the Huck-Jeeves method and the Rosenbrock method, was studied in three parameters. Experiments were carried out on data obtained both experimentally using the lab stand for solar panel efficiency research, and by generation using mathematical model of the solar panel efficiency dependance on the angle of radiation, described in previous works. TThe results of experiments are analyzed, which showed a fundamental difference between the work of coordinatewise search algorithms on a mathematical model and experimental data. The main indicators of the efficiency of algorithms are substantiated on the basis of the meteorological conditions in which the measurement was carried out for the formation of experimental data. Conclusions are drawn regarding the efficiency of using these coordinate-based search methods for solving the problem of finding the optimal position of solar panels. Further prospects for research on this topic and the possibility of using coordinate-wise search methods in software of solar panels with a biaxial orientation on the position of the Sun are given.

Solar panels mounted on the roof of a building or ground are often vulnerable to strong wind loads. This study aims to investigate wind loads on solar panels using computational fluid dynamic (CFD). The results show good agreement with wind tunnel data, e.g. the streamwise distribution of mean surface pressure coefficient of a solar panel. Wind uplift for solar panels with four aspect ratios is evaluated. The effect of inclined angle and clearance (or height) of a solar panel is addressed. It is found that wind uplift of a solar panel increases when there is an increase in inclined angle and the clearance above ground shows an opposite effect.
