Design of a Hydroelectronic Solar‐Tracking System for Solar Panels

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
A prototype of a passive solar‐tracking system utilizing buoyant force based on water level was developed, and its MATLAB/Simulink model was implemented. This study is expected to encourage researchers to design solar‐tracking mechanisms using metals with different thermal expansion coefficients, air, oil, and other fluids. ABSTRACT This study presents
