Suppose that two square meters of solar cells to a flat car
Installed amount received power from the sun during the day is how much (while moving. Finally, move two hours)??
It is hard to say !! depends on:
1- the time in the day at noon much power produced than morning or afternoon.
2- no shading.
3- is the car moving towards the south in the northern hemisphere.
4- efficiency of the PV modules.
let us say solar insolation is 1000 W/m2 for 2hr and eff. is 20%
energy (not power!)=400Whr.
400 Whr as calculated by Dr Al-Khazzar (and with whom I agree) would move a typical car about 2 km. Only specially built Solar Challenge cars do much better. Sadly, solar cars are not viable if only the sunlight incident on the car is used. They have to use additional energy from other renewable supplies, and charge their batteries from it, A similar effect is seen in the biosphere - there are no photosynthetic animals. They use the energy stored in static plants by eating them over a wide area, thus tapping into solar energy thousands of times greater than incident on their own bodies.
tnx
Yes
I find this very hard, especially for all the time.
Therefore, I want to get sun angle for all times and seasons, earned its geographical characteristics such as geographical length and width and height of a path motion without a shadow of a cloud of solar energy with regard to these I calculate the received power
