FOR SOLAR PANEL

1 GENERAL
1) IS Code used for design calculation of wind pressure is IS 875 PART-3

2) DL of each solar panel of size 1956 mm X 992 mm is taken as 22KG.

3) The Solar PV module is designed for vertical mount.

4) For thermal expansion, 5mm clearance between modules are considered.

5) The solar PV module are designed by keeping sufficient distance between PV module and the ground to

avoid the module being exposed to standing water or snow.

2 WIND LOAD CALCULATIONS FOR

SOLAR PV PANEL SUPPORT STRUCTURE


The following parameters are used for wind calculation:

1) Basic wind speed ( VB ) = 33 m/s

2) Probablity factor ( K1 ) by considering life of structure of 25 years = 0.94

3) Terrain, height and structure size factor ( K 2 ) :

A) Class of structure = A

B) Terrain category = 1

Therefore K2 = 1.05

4) Topography factor ( K3 ) = 1

Design wind speed at any height ( VZ ) = VB X K1 X K2 X K3

= 33 X 0.94 X 1.05 X 1

= 32.57 m/s

Design wind pressure ( PZ ) = 0.6 VZ2

= 0.6 X 32.572

= 636.483 N/m2

As per IS 875 - 1987 ( Part - 3 ) Table 7 :

For Roof Angle = 25o and Solidity Ratio ( ф ) = 0 ,

Overall Coefficient = -1.6

Hence Final Design Wind Pressure with Coefficient = P Z X -1.6

= 636.483 X -1.6

= -1018.373 N/m2

Intensity of wind pressure = 0.1018 X 0.99 T/m

= 0.1008 T/m

=1.008 KN/m
