EXPECTED AND MEASURED VALUES OF LUMINANCE SENSORS IN DUALAXIS PHOTOVOLTAIC POSITIONING SYSTEM

• Abstract:

  A dual-axis photovoltaic positioning system has a primary task of directing a PV module towards the optimal light source when placed on electric vehicle. The idea of a positioning loop requires proper information on the PV module direction in order to get more irradiance, i.e. more energy. The assumption of a proper luminance sensor distribution is described in this paper. With this kind of distribution every angle position is described by a unique combination of luminance sensor readings. This paper compares expected readings and measured readings of a real model.
