4 FAQs about Investigation report on photovoltaic panel high wind accident

Does PV panel installation mode affect wind load?

The influence of PV panel installation mode on the wind load of PV panel array model at high Reynolds number (Re =1.3 × 10 5) was studied by a wind tunnel experiment, including PV panel inclination, wind direction, and longitudinal panel spacing of photovoltaic panels (Yemenici, 2020).

Are Hill-mounted PV panels prone to wind?

Compared to rooftops and flat ground, wind filed on hilly terrain is more complex and can vary significantly from the bottom to top of a hill. Consequently, terrain interference must be considered when estimating the wind effects of hill-mounted PV panels, which complicates the estimation of design wind loads for PV power plants.

Are rooftop PV panels vulnerable to wind?

Recent studies have shown that rooftop-mounted PV panels are highly susceptible to wind-induced loads, particularly uplift and suction forces, which can threaten their structural integrity during high wind events [3, 4, 5].

How to study wind load of photovoltaic panel arrays?

Many researchers have carried out experimental and numerical simulation analyses on the wind load of photovoltaic panel arrays. Table 1. Features of different offshore floating photovoltaics. The boundary-layer wind tunnels (BLWTs) are a common physical experiment method used in the study of photovoltaic wind load.
