Calculating Optimum Angle for Solar Panels of Dhaka, Bangladesh for Capturing Maximum Irradiation

Abstract

This paper calculates the most optimum angle for solar panel for 365 days of the year individually using geographical location of Dhaka, Bangladesh. Then it calculates total solar irradiation if any angle is kept constant for 365 days. Then it compares the outputs and determines angle for capturing maximum irradiation. Then it verifies the result with another method. The result presents optimum tilt angle for the city of Dhaka.
