Experimental Study of Renewable Energy for Solar Parking in Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS (UTP)

This project is conducted to get the best angle for optimum power generation
based on the temperature distribution and the power output. The experimental work is
carried out at Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS (UTP). Throughout the project, the
solar photovoltaic experiment is conducted to collect the data of the project such as
temperature of the air and irradiation that pass through on the photovoltaic plate. The
power output and temperature on photovoltaic panel (PV) is considered in order to find
the optimum power generation. The graph is plotted. The GAMBIT software is used to
design and mesh the geometry. For the simulation, the radiation heat model have been
modeled with radiation restricted within the annular region using Discrete Ordinates
model. Besides, the solar fluxes and temperature have been modeled using the Solar
Load Model. The comprehensive analysis is performed using ANSYS Fluent 15.0.
