Name of the Experiment:

Variations of output power in Solar PV Panel Using the Simulation Tool.

Aim of the Experiment:
To measure the variations in output power of solar PV panel basing on tilt angles, irradiance and
temperature.
Apparatus required:
Solar PV Panel Simulator
Description:
To find the output power given by the array of panels at different tilt angles, time in different directions
and find out where the maximum output power is given. Plot the graph between tilt angles and output
power, radiation and output power and temperature and output power. The electric power supplied by a
photovoltaic power generation system depends on the solar radiation and tilt angle.
As a solar panel is tilted through various angles the current output varies. The angle of incidence can
affect a solar cell output when the sunlight is directly above the solar panel at degrees.
Tilt Angle:
Tabular form1:
Power output was correlated with different tilting angles of Solar panel. The data of power output
recorded at different tilt angles is tabled and plotted a graph.
