The optimum tilt angle of solar panels or collectors is crucial when determining parameters that affect the performance of those panels. A mathematical model is used for determining the optimum tilt angle and for calculating the solar radiation on a south-facing surface on a daily, monthly, seasonal, semi-annual, and annual basis. Photovoltaic Geographical Information System (PVGIS) and Photovoltaic Software (PVWatts) is developed by the NREL (US National Renewable Energy Laboratory) are also used to calculate the optimum monthly, seasonal, semi-annual, and annual tilt angles and to compare these results with the results obtained from the mathematical model. The results are very similar. PVGIS and PVWatts are used to estimate the solar radiation on south-facing surfaces with different tilt angles. A case study of a mono-crystalline module with 5 kWP of peak power is used to find out the amount of increased energy (gains) obtained by adjusting the Photovoltaic (PV) tilt angles based on yearly, semi-annual, seasonal, and monthly tilt angles. The results show that monthly adjustments of the solar panels in the main Palestinian cities can generate about 17% more solar energy than the case of solar panels fixed on a horizontal surface. Seasonal and semi-annual adjustments can generate about 15% more energy (i.e., it is worth changing the solar panels 12 times a year (monthly) or at least 2 times a year (semi-annually). The yearly optimum tilt angle for most Palestinian cities is about 29°, which yields an increase of about 10% energy gain compared to a solar panel fixed on a horizontal surface.

Research on the mathematical model and output characteristics of a large photovoltaic array has important significance for optimal allocation and maximum power point tracking. Based on the double-diode model of photovoltaic cells, this paper deduced the mathematical model of a large photovoltaic array and made the improvement to the model and parameter optimization. According to the principle of the maximum power point matching, the large photovoltaic array MATLAB simulation mode of the improved double diode was established by use of the Newton - Ravson algorithm to determine the values of Rs and Rp. The model has the advantages of simple structure, fast operation, and the output characteristics for various light irradiation and temperature levels could be simulated exactly only by use of some parameters from photovoltaic cell production businesses. The output current data of PV module under different temperature and illumination were measured by experiment. Compared with the simulation model, it is concluded that the precision of the model in low light and high temperature condition is better than that of the single diode model, and can be applied to various types of large photovoltaic array..

Introduction: High-speed and high-efficient machining is the inevitable development direction of machining technology. The tool edge preparation can improve the life, cutting performance, and surface quality of a tool and help to achieve high-speed and efficient machining. Therefore, precise modeling and detection of the micron-level contour of a tool edge are crucial for edge preparation. The aim of this study is to provide the model and detect method of the prepared tool edge radius. Methods: The mathematical model of the milling tool trajectory is established through the Matlab. The material removal model by single abrasive particle is established based on the energy conservation principle and energy absorption theory. The material removal model by multiple abrasive grains on the cutting tool edge is constructed using the statistical methods. The mathematical model of the edge radius is established through the geometrical relationship. The milling edge preparation contour detection system is setup based on the machine vision principle through LabVIEW software. Finally, the edge radius at different process parameters is determined by the mathematical model and detection system, and the results are compared with the results of the scanning electron microscopic measurement (SEM).

In any economy there is a need for the bulky goods transportation which cannot be divided into smaller parts. Such cargoes include building structures, elements of industrial equipment, tracked or wheeled construction and agricultural machinery, heavy armored military vehicles. In any case, tractor-semitrailer should provide fast delivery of goods with minimal fuel consumption. In order to guarantee the goods delivery, tractor-semitrailers must be able to overcome the existing roads broken grade and be capable to tow a semi-trailer in off-road conditions. These properties are especially important for military equipment transportation. The important factor that determines a tractor-semitrailer mobility is its gradeability. The purpose of this work is to improve a tractor-semitrailer mobility with tractor units manufactured at PJSC “AutoKrAZ” by increasing the tractor-semitrailer gradeability. The customer requirements for a new tractor are determined by the maximizing the grade to 18°. The analysis of the characteristics of modern tractor-semitrailers for heavy haulage has shown that the highest rate of this grade is 16.7°. The factors determining the limiting gradeability value were analyzed, based on the tractor-semitrailer with a KrAZ-6510TE tractor and a semi-trailer with a full weight of 80 t. It has been developed a mathematical model to investigate the tractor and semi-trailer axles vertical reactions distribution on the tractor-semitrailer friction performances. The mathematical model has allowed to calculate the gradeability value that the tractor-semitrailer can overcome in case of wheels and road surface friction value and the tractive force magnitude from the engine. The mathematical model adequacy was confirmed by comparing the calculations results with the data of factory tests. The analysis showed that on a dry road the KrAZ-6510TE tractor with a 80 t gross weight semitrailer is capable to climb a gradient of 14,35 ° with its coupling mass full use condition. The engine's maximum torque allows the tractor-semitrailer to overcome a gradient of 10.45° It has been determined the ways to improve the design of the KrAZ-6510TE tractor to increase its gradeability. Keywords: tractor, tractor-semitrailer vehicle mobility, tractor-semitrailer vehicle gradeability.
