What is CFD Analysis of Wind Effects on Solar Panels about?
The study investigates the wind loads on ground-mounted solar PV panels using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to simulate turbulent wind effects. It analyzes a solar array with varying tilt angles and finds that maximum pressure coefficients occur at 60° tilt for wind incident angles of 90° and -90°. The research highlights the vulnerability of PV panels to wind loading and the lack of design guidelines for their safe installation.
