Dual Axis Solar Tracking System Project

The ontrack tcx2 tracker controller is a cost effective microprocessor based solar tracking controller suitable for dual axis or single axis tracking applications.

Dual axis solar tracking system project.

Five years ago i didn t think this made sense but as i ve gotten smarter in system level costs i see the tremendous value. Even better every component of the system is used all day long. In order to achieve maximum efficiency the device tracks seasonal. In this project a smart dual axis solar tracker design which also monitor and logs data using iot internet of things.

A dual axis tracker can increase energy by tracking sun rays from switching solar panel in various directions. It is a network ready controller and may be configured to operate as a single tracker application or be part of a larger commercial multi tracker solar array. The project is designed and implemented using simple dual axis solar tracker system. When a 14kw tracker like this goes up you get the performance of nearly a 20kw system.

But dual axis trackers those that follow the sun more directly than single axis models east west path have their place in residential and commercial markets. Have no doubt our dual axis trackers are the ultimate in energy production. Dual axis solar tracker can simultaneously track sun s radiation in both horizontal and vertical axis. The use of a highly portable efficient solar tracker can be very useful to applications of the military industrial or residential variety.

Dual axis solar trackers the pst 2al dual axis tracker is a fully integrated system featuring smart components that work hand in hand to deliver achievable results during any type of weather and in challenging terrain conditions. They use the same principle as the mountings of astronomical telescopes. This project was one of my final projects i did on my exchange studies in finland for this project i worked together with fatbardh this is a much larger and more advanced version of one of my first projects ever also a solar tracker. We monitor the most important parameter such as solar irradiation battery voltage temperature sun angle and generated power.

This is to certify that the project work entitled dual axis solar tracker is the bona fide work carried out by sandipan paul 11701614037 debasis kumar das 11701614018 sourav basak 11701614049 students of b tech in the dept. Of electrical engineering rcc institute of information. The dominance of single axis trackers in the large utility scale solar market sometimes steals the limelight from its dual axis cousins. In order to maximize energy generation from sun it is necessary to introduce solar tracking systems into solar power systems.
