Design and construction of a solar tracking system
An ideal tracker which follows the sun both north-south and east-west is designed and constructed. It is suitable for mounting a linear concentrator, focusing parabolic concentrator or photovoltaic array of aperture area 2 m2. The apparatus is built with two axes equational mount and controlled by a microprocessor system. The tracking is carried out by utilizing the astronomical coordinates of the sun. As such the present system gives improved tracking capability over the conventional sensor controlled tracker systems. The performance of the tracking system was studied with photovoltaic array mounted on it and tracking error of less than one degree was achieved. This tracking error can be reduced further by proper software.
