Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for assessing parameters for controlling a solar tracker including modules which include a table of means for processing solar radiation which is movable on means for connecting to the ground, which includes detecting, for each connection means, spatial coordinates of a point for connection with the table; for each module: i. determining a tilt of the table from the determined spatial coordinates; ii. determining spatial coordinates of a series of reference points of the table from the spatial coordinates and the tilt; determining, for each module, positioning parameters of the table relative to directly adjacent tables, from the spatial coordinates of the reference points; and determining parameters for controlling the tracker from the tilt and the relative positioning parameters of the tables of the tracker.
Abstract:
A method for aligning a set of solar modules of a solar tracker includes a means of connection and of transmission of a solar-tracking movement between two adjacent solar modules of the set of solar modules. The method includes an iterative loop that includes, for each on-going iteration, steps of: disconnecting adjacent solar modules of an aligned subset of solar modules derived from a previous iteration; defining which one of the previously disconnected adjacent solar modules will be the reference solar module for the on-going iteration; orienting the aligned subset of solar modules in such a way that the solar modules of the aligned subset of solar modules are aligned with the reference solar module; connecting the aligned subset of solar modules with the reference solar module for the on-going iteration so as to define an aligned subset of solar modules for the next iteration.
