A Research on the Positioning and Tracking Technology of the Mobile Device for Testing the Thermal Performance of Solar Collector

Abstract:

A moving platform and a solar tracking mechanism of a system for testing the thermal performance of solar collector have been researched and designed, worm gear and servo system are used in as well, which improve the precision of the control and the reliability of the movement. The control program based on standard state machine model is designed in the development platform of virtual instrument, and it achieves the precise control of the moving platform and the solar tracking mechanism, which guarantees to test the thermal performance of solar collector.
