I am indeed near one of the tropics. Would the momentum of the panel face during this rapid movement near to be taken into account in the determination of the torque? If so, how so?
I see your point here, thank you for this suggestion.
This makes sense to me. So as opposed to resisting the...
Thank you for your response.
I am working on the assumption that the center of mass is in the center of the panel and the elevation point of rotation is in line with the center of mass and 100 mm away for the center of mass. The azimuth point rotation is in line with the center of mass and 150...
Hello,
I am building a dual-axis solar tracker for educational purposes and I need to determine the required torque to move the solar panel in both the azimuth and elevation directions in order to determine what size motors to use. I have attached a simple sketch illustrating the mechanical...
