Comparison between four dissimilar solar panel configurations
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
Several studies on photovoltaic systems focused on how it operates and energy required in operating it. Little attention is paid on its configurations, modeling of mean time to system failure, availability, cost benefit and comparisons of parallel and series–parallel designs. In this research work, four system configurations were studied. Configuration I consists of two sub-components arranged in parallel with 24 V each, configuration II consists of four sub-components arranged logically in parallel with 12 V each, configuration III consists of four sub-components arranged in series–parallel with 8 V each, and configuration IV has six sub-components with 6 V each arranged in series–parallel. Comparative analysis was made using Chapman Kolmogorov’s method. The derivation for explicit expression of mean time to system failure, steady state availability and cost benefit analysis were performed, based on the comparison. Ranking method was used to determine the optimal configuration of the systems. The results of analytical and numerical solutions of system availability and mean time to system failure were determined and it was found that configuration I is the optimal configuration.

Comparison of four different FIM configurations--a simulation study.
Focused impedance measurements (FIM) are used in several fields, and address the problem of measuring the volume impedance of an object within a volume conductor. Several electrode configurations are possible, and these have different properties. Sensitivity fields of four configurations have been investigated. We present one new development of an existing FIM configuration, and we made finite ...
متن کاملIntegrated solar panel antennas
Introduction: Autonomous communications systems often involve the use of separate solar cells and antennas, which necessitate a compromise in the utilisation of the limited surface area available. These separate items may be combined thus saving valuable ‘real estate’, provided that the antennas and solar cells are compatible [1]. One method for achieving this is to integrate the two kinds of d...
متن کاملBandit-Based Solar Panel Control
Solar panels sustainably harvest energy from the sun. To improve performance, panels are often equipped with a tracking mechanism that computes the sun’s position in the sky throughout the day. Based on the tracker’s estimate of the sun’s location, a controller orients the panel to minimize the angle of incidence between solar radiant energy and the photovoltaic cells on the surface of the pane...
متن کاملComparison between Different Flywheel Configurations in Isolated Wind Plants
Flywheels are typically used as storage elements in isolated wind plants, especially those running at almost constant speed, connected to synchronous generators and diesel engines. Nowadays, systems with variable speed are under development, so the amount of available energy in the flywheel is highly increased. In this paper a comparison between an almost constant speed system and variable spee...
متن کاملFlat Central Configurations of Four Planet Motions
Abst rac t . The flat central configurations of four planet motions are investigated with ~¥u's elimination method. ~¥e obtain 12 collinear central configurations and a necessary condition for determining flat but noncollinear central configurations. We also prove that the number of central configurations in planet motions of 4 bodies is finite under the condition that the masses and angular ve...
متن کاملOn Tactical Configurations with No Four-Cycles
An improved lower bound is given for the band sizes of tactical configurations of rank exceeding two having no 4-cycles. This bound is applied to find an optimal configuration with certain specified parameters. A formula is given for the maximum number of cycle types one must examine to demonstrate that a rank Y configuration has no g-cycle. This result, which has appeared in our earlier work a...
