What factors affect wind load on PV supports?

(2) Methods: First, the effects of several variables, including the body-type coefficient, wind direction angle, and panel inclination angle, on the wind loads of PV supports are discussed. Secondly, the wind-induced vibration of PV supports is studied. Finally, the calculation method of the wind load on PV supports is summarized.

Are PV panel supports wind-resistant?

Future research should concentrate on the sensible arrangement of the PV panel’s inclination angles and the improved wind resistance of the PV support system’s design. This gives a theoretical foundation for the wind-resistant design of PV panel supports.

Why is wind resistance important in PV power generation systems?

Therefore, wind resistance is essential for a safe, durable, and sustainable PV power generation system. There are three modes of support in PV power generation systems: fixed , flexible , and floating [4, 5]. Fixed PV supports are structures with the same rear position and angle.
