(1) Background: As environmental issues gain more attention, switching from conventional
energy has become a recurring theme. This has led to the widespread development of …

Climate change mitigation and adaptation in urban environments call for more reliance on
clean energy sources. Large photovoltaic (PV) systems have been enjoying renewed …

Abstract 3D Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) simulations using an unsteady
solver with steady inlet conditions are carried out to investigate the wind load and flow field …

Photovoltaic (PV) system is an essential part in renewable energy development, which
exhibits huge market demand. In comparison with traditional rigid-supported photovoltaic …

The pressure field on the upper and lower surfaces of a photovoltaic (PV) module comprised
of 24 individual PV panels was studied experimentally in a wind tunnel for four different wind …

Aerodynamic loads on, and wind flow field around, an array of ground mounted solar
photovoltaic (PV) panels, immersed in the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) for open …

Solar power can improve the quality of life and reduce dependency on traditional energies
that are a significant source of pollution and global warming. Solar panels are common …

Flexible photovoltaic (PV) modules support structures are extremely prone to wind-induced
vibrations due to its low frequency and small mass. Wind-induced response and critical wind …

Wind loading is a major concern for solar array systems. To clarify the relations between flow
field and wind pressure distributions on solar panels, large eddy simulations (LES) are …

This paper presents a concise method for determining the design wind loads for multi-row
ground-mounted solar arrays, including both static and dynamic wind load coefficients …
