Performance Study of Solar Trough Tracking Control System

Abstract:

In this paper, the tracking accuracy of one-dimension north-south solar tracking system is analyzed. The method of indirectly measuring one-dimension north-south solar tracking system is given according to the variation of sun position, and the relevant formulas are derived. The experiment on measuring the relationship between tracking accuracy and thermal efficiency of trough system is also conducted. Experimental results show that the system tracking deviation is 0.04 0.065°; the peak of tracking deviation of trough system is 0.875°.
