A PV Module Surface Dust Removal Device Simulation

Abstract:

In this paper, PV module parameters of dust removal equipment are analyzed; the dust removal device model is established by using solidworks software; the motion simulation of removal process is conducted directly in solidworks motion simulation interface; a comparison of dust removal effects is made between the top-down and the left-to-right dust removal device at the same traction speed and brush dust removal brush rotation speed; a conclusion is drawn that brush traction speed, rotation speed, and helix angle have impact on dust removal effect and the two devices are close to each other in terms of dust removal effect, which provides some theoretical evidence for further design.
