ANALISIS PENGARUH SUDUT ELEVASI PANEL SURYA BERPENDINGIN AIR TERHADAP KELUARAN DAYA YANG DI HASILKAN

Abstract

The sun is a clean and environmentally friendly energy source. This energy is very suitable for use in tropical countries such as Indonesia, because of Indonesia's geographical location which is above the equator, Indonesia has a huge potential for solar energy, therefore the need for the development of renewable energy such as the application of solar panels sourced from solar energy is then converted into electrical energy. Knowing the effect of the elevation angle of water-cooled solar panels on the power produced, the methods used are literature study, tool and material preparation, tool assembly, installation, data collection. In table 4.3, it can be seen that the power measurement results of solar panels at angle 0o are highest at 10.00 a.m., which is 274.41 watts and the lowest at 16.00 is 130.01 watts. At the 15o angle, the highest is at 11.00 am, which is 274.41 watts and the lowest is at 16.00, which is 125.29 watts. At the 30o angle, the highest is at 12.00 pm, which is 280.68 watts and the lowest is at 4.00 pm, which is 128.41 watts. This happens because the greater the intensity of sunlight, the greater the power produced by solar panels is also affected by weather conditions, the determination of the elevation angle on solar panels by determining the direction of sunrise and sunset in August
