Sun tracking solar panel using arduino ppt.

This system collects free energy from the sun and stores it in the battery and then converts this energy to the respective alternating current. Updated servo controlled light tracking solar panel platform. In modern solar tracking systems the solar panels are fixed on a structure that moves according to the position of the sun. The dual axis solar photovoltaic panel takes astronomical data as reference and the tracking system has the capability to always point the solar array toward the sun and can be installed in various regions with minor.

Circuit diagram the circuit design of solar tracker is simple but setting. When the stick on top is righted to the sun or the brightest point the four ldrs get the same amount of light on them. Solar tracker one way to make the solar panel more effective is by adding the ability to track the sun as it moves across the sky. So solar panel should continuously rotate in the direction of sun.

A solar tracker is a device used for orienting a solar pv panel or lens towards the sun by using the light sensors interfaced to motors used for rotation through a microcontroller to have maximum solar radiation. Aim of the project. Let us design a solar tracker using two servo motors a light sensor consisting of four ldrs and arduino uno board. It consists of only this components ldr module l293d motor driver module dc motor 30 rpm solar panel.

By moving the solar panel according to the movement of sun we can always receive the maximum radiation. The aim of this solar tracker project is to keep the solar photovoltaic panel perpendicular to the sun throughout the year in order to make it more efficient. Use an arduino two small servo motors with light sensing photo resistors to steer a solar panel towards the sun. This solar tracker control system is designed to take light measurements from the east and west left and right side of the solar panel and determine which way to move the panel to point it directly at.

It searches for the brightest light source like the sun. Solar tracker is the best solution for receiving maximum radiation. A single axis solar tracker improves solar output by around 25 and a dual axis tracker by around 40 according to this article on altestore. Principle of sun tracking solar panel.

In this article we are going to make a sun tracking solar panel using arduino in which we will use two ldrs light dependent resistor to sense the light and a servo motor to automatically rotate the solar panel in the direction of the sun light advantage of this project is that solar panel will always follow the sun light will always face towards the sun to get charge all the time and can.
