Dual Axis Solar Tracking System with LDR

Abstract

Main problem now a day is ozone layer depletion is a consequence of using conventional energy sources in the world.In the coming years the development of PV systems is the best choice for energy generation. To abstract the energy effectively from the solar, the PV system is to be inclined depending on the sun angle. The angle of sun depends on day time and season. The structure of the PV system is to be designed so that it has two dimensional movements. The angle of the sun is sensed using LDR sensor by sending the info flag to the controller. The controller sends the signal to the motor to change the direction of the structure. The proposed work deals with the design of the system for the dual axis rotation depending on the sun inclination. The use of this solar tracking system is beneficial for more energy generation and cost effective.
