Abstract

Zadatak diplomskog rada je konstruirati sustav s povećanom učinkovitosti fotonaponskih panela pogodnog za montažu na objekte. Glavna funkcija tog sustava je praćenje položaja Sunca po određenoj osi s ciljem prikupljanja veće količine sunčeve energije zračenja smanjujući upadni kut sunčevih zraka. Analizirat će se isplativost sustava za praćenje Sunca koji se može postaviti na kose površine krovova i zgrada, u kojim situacijama se može povećati apsorbirana sunčeva energija zračenja te na koje čimbenike treba obratiti posebnu pozornost prilikom konstruiranja. Detaljno će se razraditi prijedlog rješenja sustava te će se upotrebom raznih računalnih alata i programskih paketa provesti osnovni proračuni kritičnih dijelova konstrukcije. Simulirat će se gibanje glavnih dijelova konstrukcije kod pokretanja sustava. Usporedit će se prijedlog rješenja sustava sa statičkim sustavom panela. Zaključno će se navesti smjernice za daljnji razvoj i optimizaciju konstruiranog sustava za praćenje Sunca.

Abstract (english)

The task of the master’s thesis is to construct a system with increased efficiency of photovoltaic panels suitable for installation on buildings. The system's main function is to track the sun's position around a certain axis with the aim of collecting a greater amount of solar radiation energy by reducing the sun's incident angle. This work will analyze the profitability of a solar tracking system that can be installed on sloping roofs and building surfaces, in which situations the absorbed solar radiation energy can be increased, and what are the main construction factors when designing similar systems. The proposed system solution will be worked out in detail with basic calculations of critical parts of the structure using various computer tools and software packages. The main parts movement with system startup will be simulated. The designed tracking solution will be compared with a static photovoltaic system. In conclusion, guidelines for further development and optimization of the designed system for sun tracking will be stated.
