摘要

Although the installation of agrovoltaicAgrovoltaic photovoltaicPhotovoltaic (PV) systems is rapidly increasing, its design wind loadsWind loads are not provided. Wind tunnel testsWind tunnel test were performed on 1/50 scaled models of agrovoltaicAgrovoltaic systems to evaluate wind loadsWind loads and the effects of module tilt, row spacing of PV tables, wind direction, and crops underneath modules were examined. Based on the results from the tests, the design wind force/moment coefficients for the supporting structure are suggested.
