Photovoltaic module support structure design
It is recommended that the module mounting structure be supported on top of a pole at least 50 cm long or fixed with supporting angles at four positions. . This article addresses the technical, aesthetic, and strategic problem of the limited attention paid to design and selection of materials in photovoltaic system (PSS) support structures despite their direct impact on the efficiency, durability and economic viability of these systems. From load determination to verification of steel, aluminum, and concrete parts, all steps are integrated into one consistent environment for code-compliant design. They are loaded mainly by aerodynamic forces. International regulations as well as the competition between industries define that they must withstand the enormous loads. . Photovoltaic solar energy is one of the most economical and consolidated renewable sources in the market today. The module (s) shall be mounted either on the rooftop of the house or on a metal pole that can be fixed to the wall of the house or separately in the ground, with the module (s) at least 3 (4) meters off the ground. Minimum. . MSc ENTER is a two-year master's study program jointly organized by the Department of Industrial Engineering and Management of the University of Sarajevo – Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina; Technische Universität Bergakademie Freiberg, Freiberg, Germany; and. .
