Parametric analysis The flexible support photovoltaic module system needs to change the design parameters to meet different design conditions. Therefore, we analyze some parameters to summarize the influence of these parameter changes on the new system's mechanical properties.
However, with the boom in solar power plants, flatten terrain are rapidly being taken up. This has led to an interest in flexible photovoltaic (PV) support systems because of their ability to adapt to complex environments such as deserts, mountains, fishponds and sewage treatment plants.
The photovoltaic support structure is analyzed using a fluid–structure coupling method for transient analysis. Shell elements are employed to model the photovoltaic panels, while solid elements model the support components (purlins, main beams, posts) to accurately simulate the structural response of the components under wind load.
Based on design information and on-site observations, the loads acting on photovoltaic supports primarily include the weight of the photovoltaic panels, the wind load, the snow load, and the construction load. Additionally, the Chinese code NB/T 10115-2018 mandates the consideration of the longitudinal wind load on photovoltaic supports.
