Why wind tunnel test?

 

The structure of tracker is typically wind-sensitive device whose safety and stability are greatly affected by wind. Under the complexity of photovoltaic application environment, the wind loads in different scenarios are very different. It is required that the structure must undergo a comprehensive and complete wind tunnel test to obtain calculation information to ensure that the calculation meets the requirements of the actual project. In this way, a series of risks caused by short-term strong winds or continuous strong winds to the tracking system will be avoided. The wind tunnel tests take the scaled-down structure as the test object, simulate the airflow in nature, then carry out the test and data post-processing. The data results directly affect the optimization and design direction of structure. Therefore, the tracking structure products with wind tunnel test data support are more worthy of customers’ trust.

 

The authoritative wind tunnel test data further verifies the safety and stability of the structure design of Horizon D series products, and improves the continuous trust of domestic and foreign customers on the product. Solar First will continue to work hard to provide customers with the best tracking system solutions and create more value for customers.
