Abstract

This paper concerns to study the performance of the photovoltaic with different tilt angle and optimize the best tilt angle in Kuwait. Firstly, the geographical location of the house on which the proposed PV system installed. The total area of the house and the effective area of the house roof are given. Secondly, numerical data describing the physical and the electrical characteristics of the PV module used in the construction of the PV system are provided. The data includes the dimensions, fabrication type, thermal rating and the electrical characteristics of the PV module. Also, the design equation relating the tilt angle and the PV system pitch size are provided and illustrated. Thirdly, the PV system is designed from different tilt angles and the corresponding number of PV panels used in covering the effective area of the roof house. Finally, the designed PV system has been modeled as a 3D structure and the required number of PV panels to cover an effective area of the house for maximum power production and optimize the best tilt angle in Kuwait has been presented. The results show that the tilt angle 20 degrees has the highest energy output compared with the tilt angle 30 degrees. Moreover, the energy generation using the tilt angle 20 degrees is 728 KWh and the energy generation using the tilt angle 30 degrees is 717 KWh.

科威特光伏组件倾斜角度的优化

本文研究了科威特不同倾斜角度下光伏的性能，并优化了最佳倾斜角度。首先，建议安装光伏系统的房屋的地理位置。给出了房屋的总面积和屋顶的有效面积。其次，提供了描述光伏系统建设中使用的光伏组件的物理和电气特性的数值数据。数据包括光伏组件的尺寸、制造类型、热额定值和电气特性。此外，还提供并说明了与倾斜角度和光伏系统间距尺寸相关的设计方程。第三，从不同的倾斜角度设计光伏系统，并使用相应数量的光伏板覆盖屋顶房屋的有效面积。最后，将设计的光伏系统建模为三维结构，并给出了覆盖房屋有效面积所需的光伏板数量，以实现最大功率的生产，并优化科威特的最佳倾斜角度。结果表明，与30度倾角相比，20度倾角的能量输出最高。倾角20度的发电量为728千瓦时，倾角30度的发电量为717千瓦时。
